RESOURCES
Marine protection works, with scientists repeatedly demonstrating that safeguarding key areas can rapidly increase the biomass and diversity of species while providing multiple benefits to local communities. Explore the resources below to find out more about why we must work together to protect at least 30% of the ocean by 2030.
PROGRESS
REPORT
This new analysis outlines the world’s progress toward delivering 30×30 in the ocean, revealing for the first time the percentage of each country’s national waters that are likely to be effectively protected. It also highlights gaps in existing data and knowledge on the implementation of 30×30.

Together for the Ocean Campaign Toolkit
This toolkit includes downloadable and editable resources and assets as well as information about how you can engage with and amplify the Together for the Ocean campaign.
30×30 Progress Tracker
The 30×30 Progress Tracker is the first free, public, interactive platform designed for government agencies, civil society campaigns and the general public to see how well the world is advancing toward the ambitious goal of protecting and conserving at least 30% of both land and sea by 2030. The tracker is not a replacement for the bevy of existing 30×30 data providers (e.g., World Database on Protected Areas, Marine Protection Atlas, ProtectedSeas Navigator), but rather an independent aggregator that is partnering with these providers to drive increased attention to the full ecosystem of tools.

ASOC’s new report calls on the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) to take urgent action to protect the Southern Ocean and lead the way towards meeting the international commitment to protect 30% of the global ocean by 2030 (30×30).
