Ocean Literacy With All (OLWA) is an Ocean Decade endorsed programme led by IOC-UNESCO, together with a global team of partners, that includes the Blue School PT coordination.
OLWA aims to advance Ocean Literacy through international partnerships and networks by designing and implementing transformative locally and globally relevant research-based activities and projects. The ultimate goal is to build capacity and behaviour change to achieve an ocean literate society that helps to ensure a sustainable development of the Ocean.
During the first two years (2021-2023), this ten-year programme will focus on:
• Developing a global Ocean Literacy research programme
• Strengthening the global Ocean Literacy community through targeted networking activities
• Supporting diverse stakeholders to engage in Ocean Literacy through specific training programmes
• Supporting the incorporation of Ocean Literacy across all Ocean Decade programmes to promote and advance Ocean Literacy
