| Abstract | The ocean is under threat. This is not only a scientific opportunity to describe problems. It is a partially unexplored opportunity to actively engage in change. A decade in the Nereus Program has provided a unique opportunity to better understand the past and present ways in which the ocean is managed, and has also helped develop a sense of where novel ways of engaging in governance can be productive and effective. This chapter explores recent developments in the understanding of ocean governance, and specifically explores fairness, potential shortcuts, and the role of science in ocean governance. |
