Project OCN – Sponsored by Ocean Conservation Trust and Educational Passages

PROJECT O.C.N.
As part of an international effort, Educational Passages is partnering with the Ocean Conservation Trust to launch Project O.C.N – an international, multi-stage program of events and activity designed to support student and teacher engagement with the topic of climate change through the lens of Ocean Literacy.
PART 1: Project O.C.N kicked off in October with STEMfest. In person, 1,200 students from around the UK visited the National Marine Aquarium and participated in special workshops about art and science and got to see the Lancer up close.
PART 2: Live from Tenerife! video series (which you can catch up on afterwards) follows the OCT team as they join the Lancer in Tenerife, and work with Scientists from the Spanish Institute of Oceanography and students from the Canaries to complete the final checks before the Lancer sets out on her epic return across the Atlantic.
PART 3: Ocean-Climate Nexus Conference planned for March 2023.
