The Ocean Foundation, with support from National Geographic, collaborated with a group of eight young professionals (ages 18 to 26) from seven different countries to develop a Youth Ocean Action Toolkit — in both English and Spanish! Created by youth and for youth, the toolkit contains a collection of stories and case studies of Marine Protected Areas around the world that illustrate the power of collaboration, education, and community action, from the Arctic to the South Pacific and beyond. Thank you to the many experts who contributed their knowledge to support the toolkit, and to the local community members who inspired us with their stories of ocean activism.
