Project introduction:

The world in our imagination focuses on relatedness with the more-than-human world and other others. A world where everyone can be seen, heard and appreciated.

We recognize that there are various systemic barriers in society that prevent certain individuals from accessing ocean activities and sources of knowledge. We would like to remove and bridge at least some of these barriers and ensure that everyone, regardless of their background, can take advantage of these opportunities at least for a time.

• Project We sail for stories is closely associated with the educational and research environment Sea-Water Amplification (SWA)
