Revive Our Ocean: A New Model for Coastal Prosperity

Update: As of June 2026, the percentage of the ocean under some form of protection has grown from 8% to 10%. Overfished, warmed, polluted — our life support system is in peril. But if we act now, together, we can restore ocean life and the livelihoods that depend on it. Revive Our Ocean helps to scale coastal protection and design marine protected areas (MPAs) as regenerative businesses, proving conservation yields economic prosperity. Revive Our Ocean is building a vibrant community of practice of ocean conservation leaders in different countries, united by a vision to restore the ocean—one coastline at a time, by those who know their waters best. Built on three pillars — Inspire, Enable, and Equip — Revive Our Ocean unites a leading collective, providing partners and local communities with the tools and resources to create and sustain effective MPAs. www.reviveourocean.org
