Baltic Sea Region Blue Economy Update - April 25-26, Riga

March 28, 2024

Blue Mission Arena 2 will be held in Riga, Latvia, 25-26 April, focusing on regional actors in Estonia, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania and East Sweden. The event involves key stakeholders who will have the opportunity to engage with current and future actions in this region. Over the course of two days, dialogue focuses on the region's blue economy needs and plans for the transformation to a more carbon-neutral, environmentally friendly, and circular blue economy. Participants will have the chance to vote on the Roadmap towards Mission Ocean and Water’s success for this region at the final Mission Assembly.

In this Arena, focus is placed on the Baltic Sea to cover ‘Blue on Land’, i.e., lakes, rivers and wastewater. Topics include fishery & aquaculture, shipping and ports, nutrients and pollution leakage to the ocean and waters, waterborne transport, nature protection and restoration, sustainable products, and all actions required to transform these sectors.

Discussions will be framed across 15 specific workshop themes. Agenda and registration: https://www.b2match.com/e/2nd-mission-arena
