- **Event Description**: Humans and the Ocean share a deep, interdependent relationship that spans millennia. But how well read are we in understanding the Ocean and the pressures it faces?

Join us for this edition of the 2026 Marine Discovery Series, an a program of conversations hosted by the National Marine Science Centre in Coffs Harbour.

The Ocean sustains people by providing food, regulating climate, supporting jobs, and shaping cultures around the world. In turn, human activities deeply influence the health and future of ocean ecosystems. 

Ocean literacy emerged in the early 2000s as educators and scientists sought to clarify the Ocean’s influence on humans and our impact on the Ocean.   

Coinciding with National SeaWeek, Stephan Soule, Outreach and Education Manager at SCU’s National Marine Science Centre, will highlight the evolution of ocean literacy and its vital importance for the future of our oceans.
