Dubai recently hosted G20 Ocean Dialogue at the DP World Pavilion in Dubai EXPO City, led by DP World and the UN Global Compact. This event brought together global sustainability experts and industry leaders to discuss solutions and develop a 10-point action plan addressing decarbonisation, plastic pollution, and marine ecosystem preservation. Topics also included nature-based solutions and financing strategies to combat climate change and enhance community resilience. “As a company that facilitates global trade, we understand the importance of healthy oceans in mitigating climate change and providing socio-economic opportunities,” His Excellency Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem, CEO & Chairman, DP World, said. “Our partnership with the UN Global Compact highlights our dedication to advancing ocean and climate research. With our new Ocean Strategy, we aim to support diverse ecosystems, healthy waters, blue innovation, and finance,” he added.
