About World Oceans Day
In 1991, the International Centre for Ocean Development and Ocean Institute of Canada launched a planning exercise for the future of the world’s oceans. A year later, Oceans Day was launched at the NGO Global Forum as part of the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro. Ever since, communities around the world promote and celebrate World Oceans Day on June 8.
