Nice is preparing for a significant occasion by hosting the United Nations Conference on the Ocean (UNOC 2025). This event will take place in the month of June and will gather numerous political leaders, scientists, and associations from around the world.
For five days, discussions will focus on the protection of the marine environment. The objective is to reach a common agreement project to better preserve the oceans.
