Peace Boat US is excited to announce the launch of a new series of programs as part of the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development. We invite youth leaders from around the world who are working toward sustainability in their home communities to enrich their understanding of marine science and climate action on a global scale through capacity building, citizen science programs, network-building, and educational experiences onboard Peace Boat and in the ports of call. Highlighting the theme of this year’s United Nations World Oceans Day: Planet Ocean, Tides are Changing, we seek to raise awareness about Life Below Water and encourage positive action for our blue planet.

Learn from our Youth for the SDG’s scholars and hear about their exciting travels for the UN Ocean Decade onboard our ship, the MV Pacific World
