Funding
Ocean conservation is alarmingly underfunded
THE NEED
Ocean conservation represents the least funded area within philanthropy worldwide, and of all the Sustainable Development Goals, Goal 14 – life below water – has received the least support.
How are we supposed to recover our ocean successfully and in time, when the intrinsic value of the ocean is not recognized, its fundamental importance for life on this planet?
Another big problem of ocean recovery to date has been that it is usually thought of in terms of isolated projects and completion dates. This means that once a project – and more specifically, its funding – comes to an end, so does the project in the literal sense of the word. As a result, there is a complete lack of continuity in valuable conservation work. There is also a lack of a synthesis of all the scientific work that has been done so far to get a full picture.
