The Partnership for Observation of the Global Ocean (POGO), which was founded in 1999, is a consortium of major oceanographic institutions around the world, represented by their directors. POGO's goal is to promote global operational oceanography, the implementation of a Global Ocean Observing System, and the importance of ocean observations for society.[1] As of 2023, POGO has 56 member organizations.[2] The current chair is Prof. Nick Owens (Scottish Association for Marine Science, UK). [3]
It is supported from annual dues subscribed by the members, as well as by grants from charitable foundations. The establishing funds for POGO were provided by the Alfred P. Sloan and Richard Lounsbery foundations.
POGO provides a forum (at the annual meetings and intersessionally) for members to meet with peers and senior officials of partner organisations to discuss issues of mutual concern. To ease the shortage in trained observers of the ocean in developing countries, it has developed a suite of programmes in capacity building, and works with relevant partner organisations in the marine field SCOR, IOC, GOOS, GEO). It engages in outreach activities to the general public such as hosting exhibits at international events such as Expo 2012 Yeosu Korea, UNFCCC COP Meetings and AGU-ASLO-TOS Ocean Sciences Meetings.[4]
