Leading European Ocean scientists have launched Navigating the Future VI (NFVI), a publication which provides governments, policymakers and funders with robust, independent scientific advice, focusing on the critical role the Ocean plays in the wider Earth system. Navigating the Future VI proposes the marine (natural and social) science research we need to help us address the challenges facing the planet, and with whom we need to collaborate to find solutions.

This is a flagship publication of the European Marine Board, an independent non-governmental advisory body that represents more than 10,000 marine scientists across Europe.
