OCl Guardians
Protecting the Ocean Together
The Ocean Culture Life Guardians is a community of organisations, charities, brands, conservationists, campaigners, and ocean experts who share a passion for the ocean and work together to protect it. Our Guardians collaborate on essential projects and create engaging content to raise awareness and promote the restoration of healthy oceans.
Join us in our mission to protect the ocean by becoming a Guardian. Together, we can make a difference and ensure a brighter future for our planet's seas.
community
Other than the obvious benefits that being part of a community brings to the table, we help vocalise the crucial work you and/or your organisation do through the power of storytelling.
We host events and exhibitions TO share and celebrate our community work. We frequently ask you to join us at these events to showcase and present your work.
