Ocean Health Online Course

This is for the change makers of tomorrow

In 2024 we launched the free Ocean Health Course, an educational program designed to deepen understanding of ocean conservation. Comprising seven modules,and partnering with amazing ocean conservation organisations, it explores the crucial role oceans play in supporting life on Earth, the impact of plastic pollution, and other significant threats to marine health.

Project Goals

Participants will discover innovative solutions such as Seabin™ technology through engaging videos and learn from cutting-edge research at the Seabin Foundation Ocean Health Lab. The course also examines how river systems contribute to ocean waste and the effects of ocean acidification.

Suitable for ages 16 and up, it includes quizzes, reflections, and activities to support learning. Upon completion, participants receive a certificate and join a network of organisations and individuals committed to ocean conservation, with opportunities for further involvement and mentorship.

  1. 1

    Firstly, the Seabin team will share with the world what it does best, via short and clear informative videos.

  2. 2

    Secondly, each video will be accompanied by short interactive written lessons.

  3. 3

    Then, each unit will offer a possibility to dive deeper into the concepts introduced, encouraging anyone to become a leader, mentor, or even an ambassador with us.

  4. 4

    In addition to all the above, adepts of aquatic sports will be presented with possibilities to combine their role as athletes, with the preservation of marine environments.

  5. 5

    The online course is designed to align with key concepts from high school curriculums, so that it can be adopted by teachers in part or in full.

  6. 6

    Together, we CAN make this Earth clean again, and this course is the tool we will use to work together at it!

The free Seabin Foundation Ocean Health Course is made possible by:

  • Developing and updating educational materials and tech.
  • Ongoing research to keep the course content fresh.
  • Upgrading the course infrastructure to ensure it’s always accessible.
  • Offering the course for free, so more people can join.
  • Creating a primary school version to get younger kids involved.
This project is possible thanks to the funds raised by the Ocean Sheroes, four passionate athletes and ocean lovers, who rowed across the Pacific Ocean in 2021 over 38 days. The program launched in 2024.
