- The Earth Journalism Network (EJN), an initiative of Internews, has officially opened applications for its 2026–2027 Media Grants aimed at strengthening journalism on marine conservation and countries’ commitments toward achieving the global 30×30 biodiversity target.
- In December 2022, over 190 countries adopted the Global Biodiversity Framework, committing to protect and effectively manage 30% of the world’s terrestrial, inland water, coastal, and marine areas by 2030—commonly known as the 30×30 Target.
- However, global assessments show that only around 3.5% of the world’s oceans are currently fully or highly protected, highlighting the urgent need for stronger conservation efforts and greater public accountability.
