Activities
The Race for Water Foundation is an organization dedicated to ocean conservation. The Race for Water Foundation deploys its LEARN, SHARE, ACT activity programs through global expeditions onboard ever more innovative ships, true demonstrators of the ecological transition.After two global expeditions against plastic pollution, Race for Water is tacking on another plague for our oceans: climate change.
In 2024, the Foundation’s crew will return to sea aboard a revolutionary, new zero-emission catamaran, the MODX 70. The ship was created by Ocean Developpement and Aeroforce, a team with extensive experience in the design, development, and operation of ships of the future, accelerators of the energy transition.
By deploying its “LEARN, SHARE, ACT” programs, Race for Water will demonstrate the importance of decarbonizing the maritime world and preserving a healthy and living Ocean to successfully stabilize and perhaps be able to reverse global warming. Scientific missions, awareness-raising activities, and demonstration of disruptive innovations will be on the program of this new Odyssey, whose first missions will be deployed in the Mediterranean Sea.
