OCEAN RIGHTS can bring about exactly that! From a resource to a living relative; from passive heirs to the ocean\u2019s generosity to active guardians of its future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this way, OCEAN RIGHTS aligns with <a href=\"https:\/\/m-e-e-r.de\/en\/m-e-e-r-vision\/\">M.E.E.R.&#8217;s Vision<\/a>: We need a more holistic relationship with the world around us\u2014moving away from the narrative of separation toward a new story of interconnectedness. No habitat symbolizes the interconnectedness of all life quite as much as the ocean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>M.E.E.R. supports the important work of OCEAN RIGHTS and encourages other NGOs to do the same.
