DESCRIPTION:

Sea Week in Australia and New Zealand, held annually, is a notable event to promote ocean literacy and foster a deeper connection between people and the sea. In New Zealand, Sea Week is organized by the Sir Peter Blake Marine Education and Recreation Centre (MERC) and was first introduced by the Marine Education Society of Australasia in 1992. The New Zealand Association for Environmental Education (NZAEE) coordinated the event from the late 1990s until 2019, after which MERC took a more active role.

The event encompasses various activities such as school presentations, community beach clean-ups, kayaking, snorkeling, and marine ecosystem field trips. These activities are designed to engage people of all ages and inspire them to learn about and connect with the marine environment. The goal of Sea Week is to instill a sense of stewardship and a deeper understanding of the importance of oceans to our lives.

In Australia, Sea Week is part of a broader campaign led by the Marine Stewardship Council to raise awareness about the critical role oceans play in sustaining life on our planet. The week features virtual visits, quizzes, and educational resources to improve our understanding of the ocean's influence on us and our impact on the sea.

Sea Week highlights the challenges facing our oceans, such as pollution, overfishing, and the effects of climate change. By participating in Sea Week activities, individuals can contribute to efforts to preserve marine life and ecosystems, ensuring their sustainability for future generations. This event is crucial for educating the public about the importance of the sea and fostering a commitment to its conservation.
