- 2024 Longchen Paper & Packaging Co., Ltd. and National Taiwan Ocean University Joint Project Results Presentation Conference
2024財團法人榮成永續發展環保基金會與國立臺灣海洋大學合作計畫成果發表會
Since 2019, National Taiwan Ocean University and Longchen Paper & Packaging Co., Ltd. have jointly launched a collaboration project on Marine Environmental Protection and Sustainable Development. Each year, Longchen Paper & Packaging Co., Ltd. has provided over NT$2 million in funding to support the implementation of related programs at our university. In 2024, marking the fifth anniversary of this partnership, a Results Presentation Conference was held at our university to showcase and promote the achievements of the collaboration. The event was attended by approximately 80 participants, who listened to the project outcomes. To date, 29 students have taken part in the program, deeply embedding the concept of sustainable development in their minds and actions.
Sustainable Impact:Since 2019, the university has partnered with the Rongcheng Foundation for Sustainable Development to implement projects on "Marine Environmental Protection and Sustainable Development," with over NT$2 million in annual funding. Over five years, this collaboration exemplifies SDG 17.2.5 through a long-term public–private partnership advancing marine sustainability. The initiative integrates marine ecosystem protection (SDGs 14.2.2, 14.2.3), ocean research and education (14.3.1, 14.3.3), sustainable fisheries management (14.4.2, 14.4.3), and conservation area promotion (14.5.2), while also fostering climate awareness (13.3.5). The 2024 results symposium showcased achievements to around 80 attendees and engaged 29 students in hands-on projects, embedding sustainability values and demonstrating the power of academia–foundation collaboration in advancing marine conservation and climate education.
本校與財團法人榮成永續發展環保基金會自2019起開展「海洋環境保護及永續發展」合作案，由榮成永續發展環保基金會每年提供超過200萬元經費供本校執行相關計畫。2024年雙方合作滿5年，故決定於本校舉辦成果發表會，推廣合作成果。 發表會當日共有約80人出席聆聽計畫成果，本合作更已有29位學生參與計畫，將永續發展的觀念深植於心。
永續影響力：本校自2019年與榮成永續發展環保基金會合作推動「海洋環境保護及永續發展」計畫，每年投入逾200萬元資源，持續五年推展海洋教育與保育行動，展現公私協力落實SDG 17.2.5「建立長期夥伴關係」。計畫內容涵蓋海洋生態保育（14.2.2、14.2.3）、海洋研究與教育推廣（14.3.1、14.3.3）、漁業與資源永續利用（14.4.2、14.4.3）、以及海域保護區推動（14.5.2），並融入氣候行動教育（13.3.5）。成果發表會除促進知識分享，也吸引29位學生參與，深化永續素養與行動實踐，展現學界與基金會共同推動海洋永續的成效。

- Early Career Ocean Professional (ECOP) Listening Sessions
早期職業海洋專業人士 (ECOP)聆聽工作坊
The listening sessions revealed that youth from diverse backgrounds in Taiwan—ECOPs, Indigenous youths, and young Ocean Educators—share strong concerns about marine pollution and ecosystem degradation. Across all groups, ‘Challenge 1: Understand and beat marine pollution' and ‘Challenge 2: Protect and restore ecosystems and biodiversity' were consistently ranked among the top three priorities. While the third priority varied, each group brought unique perspectives shaped by their experiences and professional or cultural contexts. All participants acknowledged that Taiwan has demonstrated significant strengths in marine ecosystem restoration and possesses the capacity to contribute valuable expertise and technology to global ocean sustainability. However, over 60% of ECOPs and Indigenous youth participants had never heard of the UN Ocean Decade, largely due to Taiwan's exclusion from formal UN processes. Despite Taiwan's fisheries and shipping sectors ranking among the top globally, it remains excluded from many international negotiations, resulting in a critical gap in global ocean data and perspectives. The participants called for more inclusive and culturally grounded ocean governance that integrates the knowledge and efforts of non-state actors, including Indigenous communities. Their collective messages urge that Taiwan's marine expertise and perspectives be meaningfully included in international dialogues—ensuring ocean sustainability efforts reflect diverse voices and local realities.
Sustainable Impact:This dialogue gathered Taiwanese youth from diverse backgrounds—environmental advocates, Indigenous leaders, and marine educators—to discuss ocean pollution, ecosystem degradation, and inclusive governance. Participants recognized Taiwan's strong technical capacity in marine ecosystem restoration but highlighted its exclusion from UN Ocean Decade processes, resulting in significant data and representation gaps. Over 60% of attendees had never heard of the UN Ocean Decade, underscoring the need for greater international engagement. The forum called for culturally grounded and inclusive ocean governance that integrates Indigenous knowledge and non-state actors' expertise. It emphasized Taiwan's potential contribution to global marine sustainability through science, education, and policy innovation. This initiative aligns with SDG 14 (Life Below Water), promoting conservation and sustainable management of ocean resources; SDG 17 (Partnerships for the Goals), strengthening global collaboration; and SDG 4.3.5, enhancing educational awareness and professional capacity for sustainable ocean action.
聆聽環節發現，來自不同背景的台灣青年——環保青年、原住民青年和青年海洋教育者——都對海洋污染和生態系統退化有著強烈的擔憂。在所有群體中，「挑戰一：了解並戰勝海洋污染」和「挑戰二：保護和修復生態系統與生物多樣性」始終位列三大優先事項之列。雖然第三個優先事項各不相同，但每個群體都根據自身的經驗、專業或文化背景提出了獨特的觀點。所有參與者都承認，台灣在海洋生態系統修復方面展現出顯著優勢，有能力為全球海洋永續發展貢獻寶貴的專業知識和技術。然而，超過 60% 的環保青年和原住民青年參與者從未聽說過聯合國海洋十年，主要是因為台灣被排除在聯合國正式進程之外。儘管台灣的漁業和航運業在全球名列前茅，但它仍然被排除在許多國際談判之外，導致全球海洋數據和觀點有重大缺口。與會者呼籲更具包容性、以文化為基礎的海洋治理，整合包括原住民社群在內的非國家行為體的知識和努力。他們共同呼籲，將台灣的海洋專業知識和觀點有效納入國際對話，確保海洋永續發展努力反映多元聲音和本土現實。
永續影響力：本活動匯集來自不同背景的台灣青年，包括環保青年、原住民青年及海洋教育者，共同探討海洋污染、生態系退化及多元文化參與等議題。與會者一致認為，台灣在海洋生態修復上具備專業能力與技術優勢，應積極參與全球海洋治理。然而，超過六成的青年未曾聽聞「聯合國海洋十年」，顯示台灣在國際海洋永續進程中被邊緣化的困境。與會者呼籲建立更具包容性的國際對話平台，納入原住民與非國家行為者的知識與經驗，並促進海洋教育與文化治理的融合。此舉不僅推動跨文化合作與教育提升，也體現SDG 14「海洋生態永續」、SDG 17「夥伴關係」、及SDG 4.3.5「教育與專業能力增能」之核心精神。

- 2025 Ocean Action Symposium
海洋素養與適能
What is your vision of "ocean literacy"? Ocean literacy is more than just textbook knowledge; it's a way of looking at the world—it influences our values and shapes our motivation to act. Have you ever considered this? Every breeze, every current, every ship, every story of the sea—they are inextricably linked to our lives and culture. How do Taiwan's tides and ocean currents affect residents of the island and its outlying islands? How have shipbuilding and navigational technology shaped Taiwan's unique maritime culture? And what significance do coral conservation efforts have for the marine environment? This year's symposium invited scholars from across disciplines, educators on the front lines, representatives from the marine restoration industry, and marine cultural activists to share their insights! The symposium focused on themes of science communication and popular science education, marine culture and island society, and social participation and marine restoration.
Sustainable Impact:The "Ocean Literacy" symposium redefines ocean awareness as more than academic knowledge—it is a worldview that connects science, culture, and action. The event invited interdisciplinary experts, educators, and marine restoration practitioners to explore three key themes: science communication and public education, marine culture and island society, and social participation in ocean restoration.Through discussions on topics such as coral conservation, shipbuilding traditions, and community-based marine stewardship, the symposium encouraged participants to view the ocean as an integral part of life and identity.This initiative not only enhances public understanding of marine sustainability but also strengthens collaborations among academia, education, and industry.It exemplifies SDG 14 (Life Below Water) by promoting ocean conservation awareness, and SDG 17 (Partnerships for the Goals) by fostering multi-sector partnerships for sustainable ocean development and education.
你對「海洋素養」的想像是什麼？ 海洋素養，不只是課本上的知識，更是一種看待世界的方式——它關係著我們的價值觀，也形塑了我們的行動力。 你有想過嗎？每一次吹來的海風、流動的洋流，每一艘航行的船隻、每一段海上故事，都與我們的生活與文化息息相關。台灣的潮汐與洋流，如何影響本島與離島的居民？造船與航海技術，如何塑造出台灣獨特的海洋文化？珊瑚保育的努力，對海洋環境又有什麼意義？ 今年的座談邀請跨領域的學者、站在第一線的教育者、致力海洋復育產業代表與海洋文化行動者，帶來精彩的分享! 座談會主題聚焦在——科學溝通與科普教育、海洋文化與島嶼社會、社會參與與海洋復育
永續影響力：本次「海洋素養」主題座談強調從教育、文化、產業與社會參與等面向深化全民的海洋意識。活動以「你對海洋素養的想像是什麼？」為引言，鼓勵民眾重新思考海洋與人類生活的連結，將海洋視為理解世界與行動的出發點。座談邀集跨領域專家，包括海洋教育學者、文化研究者、海洋復育產業代表及第一線教育工作者，探討「科學溝通與科普教育」、「海洋文化與島嶼社會」及「社會參與與海洋復育」三大主題。內容涵蓋從海洋環境保育、珊瑚與生態修復、航海與造船文化，到地方社會行動等多層面議題。此座談會透過多元對話與知識交流，深化社會大眾對海洋永續的理解，並強化學術、教育與產業間的夥伴合作，實踐 SDG 14（保育與永續利用海洋資源） 與 SDG 17（強化全球夥伴關係） 的精神，推動從知識、文化到實踐的「海洋公民素養」。
