Abstract
This chapter aims to dissect the concept of ocean governance. First, it considers how the concept is understood, in particular how it has developed. Second, the presentation highlights how many and how diverse international instruments relevant to ocean governance are and how the relationship between these instruments is conceptualized. Finally, the paper uses the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the UN Ocean Conference and its follow-up processes as an illustrative example that can contribute to the clarification of the concept of ocean governance.
