Host: Peter Neill Producer: Trisha Badger ABOUT THIS EPISODE Ocean Literacy is a bottom-up movement driven by classroom teachers who understand the full implication of education, adaptation, and innovation for our future. In Venice, Italy, in 2024, a conference gathered to address ocean issues, and to produce the Venice Declaration for Ocean Literacy in Action, meant to provide goals and agenda items for the UN Ocean Conference in Nice, France scheduled for June of 2025.
