The Key Objectives of GRA-IX:
1) Opportunity to discuss the highlights, progress and challenges of GOOS Regional Alliance (GRA) over the last two years;
2) Examine and explore how GRAs will benefit/contribute from/to the UN Ocean Science Decade for Sustainable Development, the GOOS Strategy 2030, and the development of an Implementation Plan;
3) Discuss how regional governance can improve implementation at national level;
4) Discuss and agree on new GRA priorities, actions and leadership (Chair and vice-chairs).
