Win up to 5000$ with Millennium Oceans Prize 2019

The Millennium Oceans Prize is returning for its fifth year to support and celebrate students who are passionate about conserving, protecting, and sustainably using oceans, seas, and marine water and life. The Millennium Oceans Prize targets Sustainable Development Goal 14 by celebrating youth activists who are focused on enriching their communities through advancing marine and freshwater conservation and sustainable use of marine resources. 

The Prize

The best part of this prize is the opportunity to cultivate a community of peers who care just as much about the oceans and marine resources as you do. Here are the specifics:2

1. Up to $5,000 to implement your winning campaign.
2. Mentorship and support from MCN.
3. Co-curate campaign action groups, mobilizing and coordinating with peers who are passionate about SDG 14.
4. Write for our media partners about your campaign.
5. Co-curate global webinars with the MCN and the Remmer Family Foundation during the academic year to keep peers engaged and involved.

Requirements

• The Millennium Oceans Prize is looking for campaign ideas that are concrete and can rally peers to mobilize in this sector. Applicants should think on how to engage youth leaders on other campuses and in communities across the globe to fight for and champion advocacy and leadership for the oceans, freshwater systems, sustainable fishing, and marine conservation.
• The campaign could take shape through activism, social entrepreneurship, or research.
