The Partnership for Observation of the Global Ocean (POGO) was founded in 1999 by directors of oceanographic institutions around the world as a forum to promote and advance the observation of the global ocean. POGO is a UK-registered charity with member institutions from around the world, and works closely with other international and regional programmes and organisations.
POGO seeks to expand international support for ocean observing, through innovation of the ocean observing system, capacity development and outreach/advocacy.
The POGO-22 Annual Meeting took place as a virtual event from 25-28 January 2021.
Due to the Coronavirus pandemic, the POGO Board of Trustees decided to hold the POGO-22 meeting as a virtual event, rather than in Mexico as originally planned.
POGO annual meetings are for POGO Members, partner organisations and invited participants.
The Plenary sessions were held on the Hopin platform.
The AGM was held via Zoom.
