POGO: Observing the Global Ocean

The Partnership for Observation of the Global Ocean, POGO, is a forum created in 1999 by directors and leaders of major oceanographic institutions around the world to promote global ocean observing. POGO’s Mission has three main areas of focus: (i) Innovation in Ocean Observing, (ii) Capacity development and (iii) Outreach and Advocacy. POGO has members all around the world, and works closely with other international and regional programmes and organisations.
