Peace Boat US “Youth for the SDGs” program for the UN Ocean Decade : 2024 Mexico - Vancouver - Alaska

Peace Boat US is excited to announce our next "Youth for the SDGs" program onboard the 117th Global Voyage from Manzanillo, Mexico to Vancouver, Canada, sailing north through the fjords to Seward, Alaska. This experiential learning program is officially endorsed by IOC UNESCO since June 8, 2023 as a Contribution to the UN Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development.
As a nonprofit organization, Peace Boat US works to promote a culture of peace and sustainability through educational programs held onboard Peace Boat's ship, the MV Pacific World. In partnership with the United Nations SDG Action Campaign and other key stakeholders, Peace Boat’s activities empower participants, strengthen local capacity for sustainability, and build cooperation beyond borders.

The international organization Peace Boat, which holds Special Consultative Status with the United Nations (ECOSOC), invites youth leaders from around the world, working towards sustainability in their home communities, to travel onboard, engaging in capacity building, citizen science programs and experiences in the ports of call that enrich their understanding of marine science and climate action on a global scale.
