Nausicaa, National Sea Center, is committed to raising awareness and educating about the environment

To achieve these objectives, Nausicaa implements various actions. This includes creating interactive and educational exhibitions to help visitors better understand marine ecosystems and the environmental challenges they face. Educational offerings are also provided for teachers and students, offering educational activities and workshops on ocean conservation. Additionally, Nausicaa organizes awareness events such as conferences, film screenings, and public animations, as well as communication campaigns to promote sustainable behaviors towards the oceans.

Launched in March 2010 in France by Nausicaá, in Italy by the Acquario di Genova, and in Spain by the Aquarium Finisterrae, the European program "Mr.Goodfish" also aims to raise public awareness about sustainable consumption of seafood and engage them in marine resource preservation. Each season, Mr.Goodfish publishes a list of seafood recommended by marine resource specialists. If every French person consumed a recommended species by Mr.Goodfish just once a year, it could save 20,000 tons of endangered species. The Mr.Goodfish program adopts a wholly positive approach. The selection criteria for Mr.Goodfish are scientifically rigorous and based on four factors: the status of the resource, size, season, and species status according to the latest advice from the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) on stocks, issued annually in partnership with IFREMER (French Research Institute for Exploitation of the Sea).
