Overview
Blue Manifesto: A rescue plan that works
In January 2020, over 100 organisations, led by the ‘Blue NGOs’ —BirdLife Europe, ClientEarth, Oceana, Seas At Risk, Surfrider Foundation Europe, and WWF— launched the Blue Manifesto, a rescue plan outlining specific actions to protect our oceans and coastlines. Each year since, the six NGOs have tracked the EU’s progress in delivering a healthy and climate-resilient ocean by 2030. The latest version of this policy roadmap was released in 2024.
The Blue Manifesto is a comprehensive document detailing the measures that must be adopted at the EU level to ensure thriving coastal and marine ecosystems, crucial for a climate-resilient future. Its holistic approach, along with large support from civil society organisations, makes it a valuable tool for policymakers. As a ready-to-use action plan, it provides clear steps for driving meaningful change.
