About GEO Blue Planet Oceans and Society: Blue Planet is an Initiative within the Group on Earth Observations GEO Blue Planet’s mission is to: advance and exploit synergies among the many observational programmes devoted to ocean and coastal waters; to improve engagement with a variety of users for enhancing the timeliness, quality and range of services delivered; and to raise awareness of the societal benefits of ocean observations at the public and policy levels.

About GEO Blue Planet Components Themes OECS is the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States

Current Activities Symposium speakers include: Populating a new Advisory Board and expanded the Steering Committee Planning a Blue Planet symposium in College Park, MD Symposium speakers include: Craig McLean (NOAA), Christopher Corbin (UNEP), Dick Feely (NOAA), Werner Kiene (Marine Stewardship Council), Rashid Sumaila (University of British Columbia), Martin Le Tissier (Future Earth Coasts), Claire Jolly (Head, Ocean Economy Group, OECD), Dail Rowe (Weather Predict Consulting Inc.), CMD Ruth Lane (North American Ice Center), Okalik Eegeesiak (Chair of the Inuit Circumpolar Council), James Movick (Pacific Islands Forum Fisheries Agency)

Current Activities 4M – Multipurpose Marine Monitoring Mechanism Project concept (for implementation in Barbados and Grenada) currently being developed by UNDP Barbados and the OECS, IOCARIBE-GOOS and GEO Blue Planet 4M will work to support Caribbean SIDS by: Providing technology for effective monitoring of the marine environment Increasing capacity for marine data collection and analysis Improving access to real-time data in the region Increasing data sharing in the region Establishing a data platform for Caribbean SIDS OECS is the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States

Current Activities GEO Blue Planet and the UN Sustainable Development Goals Contributed to side event on ocean observing at the February preparatory meeting UN Oceans Conference Members of the GEO Blue Planet network will participate in the UN Oceans Conference in June GEO Blue Planet is working on a proposal to NASA to fund a workshop in the Caribbean titled: “Implementing and Monitoring the Sustainable Development Goals in the Caribbean: The Role of the Ocean” Side Meeting title: “Building partnerships for Integrated Ocean Observing and Information in support of the implementation of SDG 14”. Emily Smail was a speaker at the side event on behalf of Blue Planet. SDG Caribbean workshop will be hosted by the minister of St. Vincent

Near term & Future Activities Work with EOS Data Analytics, Inc. on demonstration projects related to ocean and coastal observing Host the GEO Blue Planet Symposium 2017 – 2019 Build and engage working groups Secure funding for implementation of 4M Identify and begin work on additional prototype/pilot projects Work to increase engagement and begin capacity building activities Advocate for sustained ocean and coastal observations

Blue Planet and CEOS Linkages CEOS is a founding partner of GEO Blue Planet Paul DiGiacomo is designated as the CEOS Blue Planet Expert Steve Volz has been invited to represent CEOS on the Advisory Board GEO Blue Planet seeks to support CEOS with identifying observation requirements/priorities for ocean-related services Moving Forward Participation of CEOS in GEO Blue Planet Working Groups Continued support of GEO Blue Planet activities Participation in the upcoming symposium and 2018 symposium
