UN Ocean Decade 3rd call for proposals
|
|
|
At the programmatic level the current Call for Decade Actions No. 03/2022 has a primary focus on programmes that contribute to Ocean Decade Challenge 3 – Sustainable Blue Food and Challenge 4 – Sustainable Ocean Economy, although Actions with other foci can be considered (please see different deadline/procedure below). This includes regional programmes with a focus on one or more of these Challenges. This call is particularly welcoming applications from Africa and Pacific Small Island Developing States.
Deadlines are:
- 30 May 2022 23.59h CET: Submission of Expression of Interest for programmes that do not primarily contribute to UN Ocean Decade Challenges 3 or 4.
- 30 August 2022 23.59h CET: Submission of full applications for all Decade programmes and projects.

As a Programme endorsed in the first of the Decade’s calls, the Ocean Biomolecular Observing Network (OBON, http://www.obon-ocean.org) looks forward to evaluating and engaging with Actions responding to the present call.
OBON will evaluate Ocean Decade Project proposals that focus on biomolecular observing, and seek partnership with those that align to the Programme’s objectives. Together, we hope to foster coordinated activity across OBON partners, and co-design approaches to biomolecular ocean observing that address the Challenges of the Decade. Through this co-design and coordination, we seek to help partners more effectively distribute and share capacities, including in-kind resources or funding.
We also welcome Project proposals that would improve links between OBON and other Ocean Decade Programmes that focus on society’s relationship with marine life. These include Marine Life 2030, Ocean Practices for the Decade, Programmes relevant to fisheries, Early Career Ocean Professionals, Ocean Acidification Research for Sustainability, SMARTNET, Global Ocean Oxygen Decade, OASIS, the deep ocean Programmes, ForeSea, DITTO, and others (see list here: Explore The Ocean Decade Actions).
Please ensure that your proposal includes information on:
-
Digital strategy and implementation plan. How will the project concretely implement prevailing and emerging norms (e.g. the FAIR and CARE principles) such that their data, information and digital knowledge products will be (re)usable across all OBON partners? Note that OBON will provide coordination and assistance in federating partners around shared conventions, which all OBON partners are invited to co-develop.
-
Project development: e.g. has the project been co-designed/ co-delivered by knowledge generators and users?
-
Capacity building and retention mechanisms: e.g. does the project collaborate and engage with other groups locally and globally, does it benefit underrepresented groups such as Least Developed Countries, Landlocked Developing Countries and Small Island Developing States, as well as indigenous and local people?
-
Equity and diversity: What concrete mechanisms will the Action deploy to promote equitable participation across capacity levels and how will this translate to greater inclusivity and diversity?
