About the event
From Small Island Developing States (SIDS) to the United States, coastal communities face similar challenges across the world in understanding nearby waters and engaging the public in ocean science. Citizen science and empowerment can take many different forms - from Fish N' Fins' social impact programs for teaching youth swimming and marine science, to Smartfin's integration of technology into surfing. The democratization of ocean innovation is key to the future for our ocean, and both of these women leaders are driving this movement forward. Seaworthy Collective is thrilled to bring together this panel of experts creating tangible impact that help inspire the next generation of Sea Change Makers.
