EU Mission

Ocean & Waters

The EU Mission Restore Our Ocean and Waters by 2030 aims to restore the health of one of our most precious common goods: our ocean and waters. It will focus on restoring ecosystems and biodiversity, eliminating pollution, and making the blue economy carbon-neutral and circular. Lighthouses will be implemented in four major EU sea and river basins. The first phase (2021-2025) will demonstrate potential solutions, which will be scaled-up and replicated across the EU in the second phase (2026-2030).
