United Ocean workshop

Welcome to Blue Bay—a coastal region in chaos. Pollution is rising. Tourism is choking the shoreline. Fish stocks are collapsing. And in a last-ditch move to meet global climate targets, the government has declared a new Marine Protected Area… without asking anyone.

In this fast-paced, high-stakes simulation, you’ll step into the shoes of real-world decision-makers—government leaders, fishing lobbies, green activists, corporate giants, and coastal citizens—tasked with saving a marine region on the brink.

Will you protect ecosystems or defend your industry? Block the casino or cut a deal? Fight for your community or make a quiet trade behind closed doors?

This is not just about the ocean.
It’s about navigating the mess of real-world decision-making: building consensus, pushing agendas, making compromises—and doing it all in the public eye.

The clock is ticking. The press is watching. And Blue Bay is up for grabs.

OUR WORKSHOPS PARTNER

Children for the ocean

Children for the Oceans is a Non-Profit Organization created in 2018 by 15 years old Thomas Lesage with the aim to protect the oceans and raise the level of awareness of children.

Our main action consists in organising awareness sessions worldwide with the support of our CFTO ambassadors.

The objective of such sessions is to disseminate information on the ocean. Our ambassadors provide details on the threats to the ocean and in particular on acidification, overfishing and plastic pollution. They also provide tips to the children so that they can act in their daily life to contribute to protect the ocean.
