'Children's Day' Presentation in India: The Importance of the Ocean and It's Protection

The James Michel Foundation delivered a presentation in partnership with Dr. Justin Anthony, Executive Director of Knowledge Foundation, to students from Kanyakumari, India, of the importance of the Ocean and its protection. The presentation aimed to inspire students to ‘study it, explore it, protect it’ and also to understand how we are affecting and being affected by changes in the Ocean's health.

In line with Sustainable Goal 4, by educating students we are ensuring "inclusive and equitable quality education" through access to the knowledge and skills necessary to promote a more sustainable society and support Sustainable Goals 13 and 14, which are to "take urgent action to combat climate change and its impact" and "conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas, and marine resources for sustainable development", respectively.
