Citizens of Surf
Description
Citizens of Surf is a long term strategy for surfers to engage in Ocean science and conservation. The project was endorsed as a UN Ocean Decade Project, under the ECOP Programme in 2023.
Citizens of Surf aims to equip surfers with the knowledge, understanding, support and tools to become active and engaged citizen scientists by 2030, and therefore contribute to the UN Decade of Ocean Science. Its main objective is Challenge 10: Restore society's relationship with the Ocean.
Citizens of Surf created the Ocean Literacy for Surfers online course for Surf with Amigas (the largest womens surf retreat in the world). The aim is to bring the framework of ocean literacy to surfers in a language that speaks to them and in the context of what appeals to them most: waves!
