coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) information sharing efforts is providing this Decision Support Tool (DST) to enhance the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command’s (USINDOPACOM) planning capabilities for potential Foreign Humanitarian Assistance (FHA) in a COVID-19 environment. The process of developing the DST can be described as a successive layering of data until a snapshot of the current state of a country is presented for planning considerations in a complex environment. Each country has a few pages presenting information on COVID-19 cases and the affected nation’s response and planning, integrated with humanitarian community response and recent disaster response and risk affecting the country. The DST now covers 42 countries and territories in the USINDOPACOM AOR, including all US territories and two French territories. It was updated daily through 22 May, after which revisions were published three times per week. Contact Information: For further information and for how to be added to the distribution list, please contact Dr. Alberto "Mo" Morales, Branch Chief, Applied Research and Information Sharing (ARIS) Branch, Center for Excellence in Disaster Management and Humanitarian Assistance (CFE-DM), at: [email protected] Requests for Information: In response to this unprecedented global crisis, CFE-DM is actively engaged in supporting operational response planning and providing relevant and timely information to our civilian and military partners.

    OUR OCEAN Learning 2019 Sharing Acting Photo: Getty Images Photo: Contents Foreword 3 Introduction 4 Our Ocean in Oslo 5 Commitments 15 Agenda 30 Side-events 38 Previous Our Ocean conferences 41 Our Ocean 2019 3 Foreword The motto of the 2019 Our Ocean conference in Oslo was ‘learning, sharing, acting’, and our ambition was to bring people together to work for clean, healthy and productive oceans. This ambition was truly fulfilled. The conference fostered partnerships between governments, business, academia and civil society. In doing so, knowledge, finance and political will were brought together - key ingredients for ensuring protection of the oceans, responsible management of marine resources and sustainable economic growth in the future. Our Ocean 2019 built on the legacy of previous conferences, but a strong sense of urgency has moved the emphasis from commitments to action. The conference identified practical measures to be taken in the areas of climate change, pollution and fisheries governance, and made it clear that knowledge-based stewardship is essential for ensuring protection of the oceans and the sustainability of the ocean economy. The push to act resulted in 374 new commitments at Our Ocean 2019, totalling at least USD 63 billion. Of this, 80% is funding for action relating to climate change. Together we have plotted a course towards a future where the state of the oceans is dramatically improved and they can continue to provide life-giving services for many generations to come. I would like to thank all the participants at Our Ocean 2019 for their hard work and commitment, and look forward to continuing our journey together.
