Short Description:
In alignment with the 2025 UN World Oceans Day theme of “Wonder”, this campaign highlights the ocean’s ability to ignite curiosity, connection, and care. This year’s global momentum will also culminate at the UN Ocean Conference, held in Nice, France in June 2025 – a high-level gathering of leaders, scientists, NGOs, and advocates working together to accelerate ocean action and progress toward Sustainable Development Goal 14 (Life Below Water). As an official member of the Friends of UN World Oceans Day, PangeaSeed is proud to support this movement by increasing ocean literacy and empathy through the arts.
