Description

I have been working for the press/communications department of the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea for many years, often giving presentations on ocean governance, UNCLOS and the work of the Tribunal. I have come to realise how little the general public knows about the ocean and so started work on an ocean awareness website, aimed at school children but accessible to all, in an attempt to provide an overview of ocean topics. I now plan to take this further, offering ocean workshops for secondary school students, hoping to inspire them to become ocean citizens and perhaps even explore ocean careers.
