As scientists who advised the High Level Panel for a Sustainable Ocean Economy, we think the panel is worth saving (see Nature 625, 424; 2024). Within five years, it forged a coalition of states committed to ocean leadership, articulated a vision of ocean stewardship and set out a plan that was based on the advice of more than 250 scientists. We are proud of the panel’s achievements, but are deeply concerned by developments in Norway, the panel’s co-chair.
