PURE OCEAN SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE
Our Scientific Committee, a mark of credibility and committment
Pure Ocean’s wish was to convene an independent & international Scientific Committee that would select the projects to be supported by the fund. The scientific credibility of the future foundation depended on it. In December 2017, this was accomplished! Distinguished scientists have honoured us by joining Pure Ocean.
