More about Sustainable Seas Trust
Sustainable Seas Trust (SST) is a science-based organisation working to protect Africa’s seas and communities for the benefit of all who live on the continent. We empower individuals, organisations, and communities to become passionate, involved and committed custodians of Africa’s seas through an Africa-wide network empowered by research, education, economic upliftment, and collaboration. We aim to achieve six UN Sustainability Goals; Goal 4, ensuring inclusive and equitable quality education and promoting lifelong learning opportunities for all; Goal 8, promoting sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all; Goal 11, working towards sustainable cities and communities; Goal 12, ensuring sustainable consumption and production patterns; Goal 14, conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas, and marine resources for sustainable development; and Goal 17, partnering for the sustainable development of these goals. By sharing knowledge, resources and expertise and inspiring co-operation and collaboration, SST enables people and organisations across Africa to work towards and drive the blue economy for the long-term wellbeing of all who live on the continent. By empowering people across Africa to come together to value and care for her seas through projects and partners already established in 32 of the 54 African continental and island states, SST works to ensure a thriving sustainable future for all its people.
