Sponsors and Funders

Ecologically sound oceans that are used in a commercially sustainable manner do not just happen.  Nor do millions of people suddenly decide to act in an ecologically responsible way.  The process of encouraging and challenging marine professionals to take care of their working environment is a task that takes time, energy and financial means. 

The organizations in this section, the Sponsors and Funders, realize the importance of ecologically and commercially sustainable oceans, and the costs of achieving it.  These organizations have chosen to support ProSea, its courses and workshops with time and financial means to make ProSea’s mission of ecological and sustainable use of the oceans possible. 

The Sponsors and Funders are listed alphabetically under the project, course or workshop they sponsored or funded.
