We are empowering an inclusive global movement to tackle Ocean threats through Science and Storytelling. No fear-mongering, no big-data, no over-simplifications. We’re changing the narrative. ✅ We break down the biggest human-threats our Ocean faces, like plastic pollution and climate change; shift the perceptions and behaviours that create them; and are empowering the world to live more sustainably. WHAT WE DO: 🌊 We translate complex Ocean science into engaging content and practical actions. Using film and popular culture, we make learning about the environment interesting and relatable. 🏆 This Ocean Intelligence approach is endorsed by UNESCO and integrated into our youth engagement programmes. 🙌 Our youth programmes, for 3 – 25-year-olds, introduce young people to the importance of the Ocean, educate them about the ways we impact it and the solutions it holds, and empower them with tools they can use to take action. If you're alive today, you're part of the generation - the Ocean Generation - who can turn the tide and restore the health of our blue planet. 💙
