Sustainability & Maritime Education

Access to inclusive education can help and equip locals with the tools required to develop innovative solutions to the world’s greatest problem.
According to United Nations obtaining a quality education is the foundation to creating sustainable development.
The reasons for lack of quality education are due to lack of adequately trained teachers, poor facilities and equipment, and equity issues related to opportunities provided.
