The BBNJ Informal Dialogues are bringing together government representatives and experts in a Track 1.5 dialogue to make concrete progress toward the signature, ratification, entry into force and implementation of an international legally binding instrument under the United Nations Convention on the Law of Sea on the conservation and sustainable use of marine biological diversity of areas beyond national jurisdiction.

Since January 2020, this Track 1.5 platform has convened delegates online and in-person.
