SDG 14

Examples of UN SDG 14: Life Below Water in Action

SDG 14 aims to conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas, and marine resources for sustainable development. Oceans are crucial to the planet’s health, supporting biodiversity, regulating climate, and providing food and livelihoods for millions. This goal focuses on reducing marine pollution, protecting marine ecosystems, and ensuring the sustainable management of fisheries. It also emphasizes the importance of conserving coastal areas and addressing the impacts of ocean acidification and overfishing. By safeguarding life below water, SDG 14 ensures the protection of marine ecosystems for current and future generations, helping to maintain the balance of Earth’s natural resources.

ART BORUPS CORNERS SOCIETY

Art Borups Corners is a non-profit arts incubator based in Melgund Township, Northwestern Ontario. We bring artists, youth, and local residents together through hands-on creative projects, workshops, and storytelling rooted in everyday life in the North. Our focus is on making space for people to try things, share skills, and build confidence through art that grows out of where they live.


We’re also a place for testing ideas and working across different ways of making — from land-based practice to digital work and everything in between. Much of what we do happens through partnerships and shared projects, connecting local creative work with wider conversations while keeping things grounded, practical, and community-led.
