HUMAN HEALTH& THE OCEANI N A C H A N G I N G W O R L D

T he ocean covers more than 70% of the planet’s surface, regulates the

Earth’s climate, produces a large proportion of the oxygen in our atmosphere and is the major

source of food proteins for over a billion people.

However, it is increasingly affected by global changes and degraded marine ecosystems are

under persistent and growing risk of further damage from microbiological and chemical

pollution, overexploitation, and climate change.

The interactions between ocean and human health are numerous, complex and yet largely

unknown to the major part of the public, the stakeholders and the scientific community. While

the future state of the ocean will largely determine the future health and well-being of

everyone.

The purpose of the “Human Health and Ocean Symposium” is to provide an update on the

various risks human activities expose the oceans to, and the threats that those activities and

the resulting ocean degradation pose to human health, but also to consider the various benefits

that the Ocean can bring to the health and wellbeing of populations.

The communications will alternate keynotes, mini-reviews by internationally renowned

speakers and short communications open to researchers in the various fields covered.

We hope you can join us in the Principality of Monaco for this event.
