Ocean Youth in Action 2025

Join us for Ocean Youth in Action in celebration of Youth Day at Climate Action Week Sydney 2025 to find out about how the health of the ocean is linked to climate as well as to the health of us. 

You'll hear from young people influencing positive action for our ocean, our life support system, as well as industry professionals, marine scientists, and entrepreneurs talking about emerging careers in the Blue, Green and Clean Industries. You'll meet like-minded people taking action for a healthy planet and learn about what you can do, no matter what age, to make a positive difference for the health of our ocean, starting from today!
