At a time when cooperation for a healthy environment is more important than ever, NOAA on behalf of the United States, is playing a key role in bringing together countries from around the Atlantic Ocean to collaborate on ocean research to tackle environmental and climatic challenges.

In early June, Atlantic nations’ representatives gathered in person in Brazil and online for the All-Atlantic Ocean Research Alliance Forum, co-hosted by Brazil and the United States. This was the first of two meetings taking place this summer, which will culminate in the signing of a new All-Atlantic Ocean Research and Innovation Declaration on July 13 in Washington, D.C. The United States, Brazil and other nations around the Atlantic will pledge to work together to advance ocean research and climate change mitigation, promote ecosystem resilience, tackle marine pollution and advance sustainable and equitable ocean economic development.
