Ocean Literacy includes knowledge, communication, and decision making – and all are critical to the development of an ocean literate society. However, Ocean Literacy research suggests it includes at least 10 dimensions – awareness, attitudes, knowledge, behavior, activism, communication, emotional connection, adaptive capacity to change, trust and access, and experience of and with the ocean. This session will focus on the diverse elements of ocean literacy research and the ways in which the global community is coming together to establish a research agenda for the Decade.
