Introduction

The UK is an island nation, surrounded by a rich and diverse ocean environment. The importance of a sustainable ocean for people and nature is now one of the defining issues of the early 21st Century alongside climate change and biodiversity loss.

As part of the UKRI funded Diverse Values project, we are interested not only in understanding ocean literacy in communities across the UK, but also in how ocean literate, we, as a community of ocean researchers and practitioners, are.
