Canada hosted the All-Atlantic Ocean Research and Innovation Alliance (AAORIA) Forum 2024 at the Canadian Museum of Nature in Ottawa, Ontario, October 8-10, 2024 (https://allatlanticocean.org/all-atlantic -forums/2024- forum/). This annual forum bridged together representatives of the Atlantic community, including AAORIA partners (i.e. Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Cape Verde, the European Union, Iceland, Morocco, Norway, South Africa, the United Kingdom and the United States). The 2024 Forum highlighted opportunities for collaborative science, including a focus on coordinating ocean observing efforts and increasing our understanding of the relationship between ocean and climate to support coastal resilience. Murray Roberts (UEDIN) participated in the conference presenting the EU projects: atlas (https://www.eu-atlas.org/), iAtlantic (https://www.iatlantic.eu/) and REDRESS. Murray Roberts was one of the speakers at the workshop on “best practices for successful cooperation” (https://teamup.com/event/show/id/gDrspBh9zmpgyB7hvYt48kxFXAUQHD). This workshop highlighted how successful partnerships drive scientific discovery, technological advances and sustainable ocean management. During this session the potential of ecological restoration and the impact of the REDRESS project were amplified to all participants, including scientists, politicians and economists.
