This exhibit highlights the beauty and diversity of ecosystems in the ocean, noting the importance and fundamental roles played by ocean ecosystems for all life on earth and reflecting the impetus to care for and protect our rich ocean ecosystems. The exhibit aims to highlight the need for urgent action to clean our oceans and their ecosystems, a topic that is at the core of the UN’s work surrounding the ocean-related Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG Goal 14.

The photos are the winners of the 2017 World Oceans Day Photo Contest.
