SDG 14

Examples of UN SDG 14: Life Below Water in Action

SDG 14 aims to conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas, and marine resources for sustainable development. Oceans are crucial to the planet’s health, supporting biodiversity, regulating climate, and providing food and livelihoods for millions. This goal focuses on reducing marine pollution, protecting marine ecosystems, and ensuring the sustainable management of fisheries. It also emphasizes the importance of conserving coastal areas and addressing the impacts of ocean acidification and overfishing. By safeguarding life below water, SDG 14 ensures the protection of marine ecosystems for current and future generations, helping to maintain the balance of Earth’s natural resources.
