Building a shared language for the ocean.
What does it mean to defend the ocean — and who gets to define it?
Curated Briefings
Each Defending Blue conversation produces a Curated Briefing: a short policy document identifying the questions decision-makers should be asking and the actors who need to be part of the conversation.
Blue Watch
Blue Watch tracks the week’s ocean stories through the Defending Blue lens: not just what happened, but how events at sea ripple across navies, industry, policy, coastal communities, ecosystems, and the wider maritime system.
Partner with Defending Blue
Defending Blue is sustained by partners who don't just fund the conversation; they join it.
