Key Points

Critically analyze how conventional knowledge integration frameworks in ocean governance marginalize Indigenous and local epistemes, arguing for recognitional justice through active unlearning.
Applied a marine social sciences analytical perspective to evaluate knowledge integration frameworks.
Examined structural othering across international and national scales, focusing on the International Seabed Authority and ocean governance in South Africa.
Knowledge integration mechanisms frequently reinforce the devaluation and othering of longstanding coastal and Indigenous stewardship practices.
Dominant ocean science frameworks remain heavily influenced by colonial, military, and commercial priorities that conflict with interconnected marine relationships.
Recognitional justice requires governance institutions and researchers to decenter Western ocean science and actively unlearn institutionalized hierarchies of knowledge.
