“This is a milestone in ending irresponsible overfishing and advancing global marine conservation,” Dr Sandra Altherr of Pro Wildlife said in a statement published by the High Seas Alliance, a network of non-governmental organisations working to protect marine life.
The agreement establishes the framework for designating large marine protected areas on the high seas and for conducting environmental impact assessments before certain activities affecting the marine environment.
With the sufficient number of ratifications, the treaty can now come into effect in 120 days, on Jan 17, 2026, according to the United Nations.
“The Treaty is the first legally binding international agreement safeguarding marine life in the High Seas, which covers two-thirds of the world’s ocean and plays a critical role in ensuring a healthy planet,“ wrote the High Seas Alliance- BERNAMA-dpa
