Call for Young Ocean Advocates – The Youth and the Arctic

The Youth4Ocean Forum is calling young people to submit projects linked to the Arctic Ocean!

Are you between 16 and 30 years old and:

• Are you deeply concerned by the state and fate of the Arctic Ocean, and by the impacts of climate change and human activities on local communities?

• Do you have a project in mind to tackle issues faced by marine biodiversity in the region or indigenous communities?

• Or maybe you organise Arctic Ocean literacy activities with children, other young people or a local community?

• Or something completely different that you think has the potential to raise awareness for and change things together with people living in this area?

Then we are looking for you!

The #Youth4Ocean Forum is launching a new call for project proposals, designed to promote the ideas of young change-makers! All across Europe, we are looking for young people who have developed or would like to develop a project to protect the Arctic Ocean, and who are keen to become “Young Ocean Advocates”.

We welcome applications from anyone involved or interested in the sustainable use of marine resources for economic growth, improved livelihoods, and jobs while preserving the health of marine ecosystems.

The deadline for submission is 15th March 2022.

If your project is successful, you will be accredited as Young Ocean Advocate and you will enjoy a range of benefits and support for your project.
