The Embassy of the Republic of Korea in Trinidad and Tobago hosted the “Digital-AI Based Ocean Climate Action Seminar” on Friday, May 1, 2026, in Port of Spain.

The seminar built upon and further advanced the outcomes of the “Ocean-Based Climate Action Seminar” co-hosted by the Embassy with the Institute of Marine Affairs (IMA) of Trinidad and Tobago and the United Nations Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) in September last year. It aimed to further concretize cooperative approaches to marine and climate response through the use of digital technologies and artificial intelligence.

The seminar brought together experts from the Republic of Korea as well as representatives from regional and international organizations, including the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI), the Association of Caribbean States (ACS), the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), and the Development Bank of Latin America and the Caribbean (CAF), who shared a range of perspectives and approaches.
