The ninth meeting of the Ad Hoc Open-ended Informal Working Group to study issues relating to the conservation and sustainable use of marine biological diversity beyond areas of national jurisdiction (BBNJ) will convene from 20-23 January 2015 at UN Headquarters in New York. The meeting is the last of three meetings (April 2014, June 2014 and January 2015) convened by the UN General Assembly through its resolution 68/70 to discuss the scope, parameters and feasibility of a possible new international instrument on BBNJ under the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). The meeting is expected to produce recommendations for a decision to be taken at the sixty-ninth session of UN General Assembly on the development of a new international instrument on BBNJ under UNCLOS, as mandated by the 2012 UN Conference on Sustainable Development (Rio+20).
