This policy brief explores the human and technological capacities required to meet international and regional ocean governance commitments, focusing on the role of science. It uses selected examples from iAtlantic to demonstrate how scientific advances and inclusive approaches can help to address capacity gaps and support sustainable management of marine ecosystems in the Atlantic Ocean. These contributions include developing cost-effective data collection systems, co-designing research strategies, sharing expedition programmes, supporting professional mobility and standardising data management practices, as well as promoting information exchange and dialogue between scientists, policymakers and other stakeholders.
