About this project

Meike Schützek from Ocean. Now! is responsible for this project
Project and goal
Ocean. Now! plans to show the pictures from our children's workshop “shout out loud - stop the flood of plastics” (Fehmarn, Baltic Sea) at the UN Ocean Conference in Nice 2025. We are accompanying the photo exhibition with an event where we invite youth representatives and give them the opportunity to talk directly to decision-makers. The aim is to create a moment of dialog between the delegates and the children.

We would also like to expand the project and give children in other countries the opportunity to make their voices heard. A photo exhibition at other international and national conferences is being planned.

Background
In the Ocean Kids Photo Workshop, we shed light on the problem of plastic pollution in the ocean, discuss the formation and avoidance of plastic and implement the topic photographically.  The workshop consists of a scientific and a creative part. It also involves somatic work. The children learn to use photography as a means of expression and take portraits of each other. The pictures are labeled by the young people themselves. You can find more information about our workshops here.
