The 24th Conference of the Parties (COP24) to the Barcelona Convention will be held from 2 to 5 December 2025 in Cairo (Egypt) bringing environment ministry representatives and national focal points of the contracting parties. The Contracting Parties to the Barcelona Convention will formally adopt the revised Mediterranean Strategy for Sustainable Development (MSSD) 2026-2035, the main strategic framework for action in the region.

The Convention’s main objectives are to: assess and control marine pollution; ensure sustainable management of natural marine and coastal resources; integrate the environment in social and economic development; protect the marine environment and coastal zones through prevention and reduction of pollution and, as far as possible, elimination of pollution, whether land- or sea-based; protect the natural and cultural heritage; strengthen solidarity among Mediterranean coastal States; and contribute to improvement of the quality of life.
