This is a 1 hr live virtual workshop for youth aged 15-18 to learn about ocean conservation, with a focus on the sustainable development goals and the importance of highlighting underrepresented voices. Students will learn about the importance of the ocean, how ocean conservation is intrinsically tied to gender equity and how we need to amplify diverse voices to ensure the sustainability of our planet.

This workshop will be offered online over Zoom and the presentation will be delivered over Kahoot. Students will need a device (e.g. mobile phone) and they can download the Kahoot app or go to www.kahoot.it. If a device is not available, students can answer verbally or using hand gestures.

This workshop is led by a marine educator from Sea Smart, a Vancouver-based charity whose mission is to inspire youth to love and protect our oceans. Sea Smart delivers school workshops, online programs, beach cleanups, and summer camps to empower the next generation of ocean heroes.
