About the event
Ocean resources and policy influence have long been inequitable due to racism, colonialism, and industrialization. Meanwhile, marginalized coastal communities face disproportionate impacts from climate change, pollution, overfishing, habitat loss, coastal gentrification, and oil and gas activities.This event will prioritize the experiences and voices of historically marginalized communities in ocean conservation discussions. The event will feature expert panels, high-level guest speakers, and much more.
Upwell is hosted by Aquarium Conservation Partnership, Azul, and Urban Ocean Lab. The planning committee includes, Center for American Progress, Earthjustice, Green 2.0, Natural Resources Defense Council, and Ocean Defense Initiative.
We hope you can join us!
