    The beginning of the final solution

    We need to unite and start working together to find a solution that can change our lifestyles and attitude toward this...

World Aqua Day is a new modern concept, similar to the Olympic Games. Instead of athletes competing in sports, ordinary people and divers around the world become ocean guardians, performing big ocean, lake and river cleanup. Same way as the Olympic Games, World Aqua Day has its own official opening ceremony.

Partners

Our partners are our ocean allies. Together we have the strength, determination, and passion to make a global scale impact. World Aqua day unites mankind across the planet to give our oceans, lakes and rivers a thorough cleanup day above and beneath the ocean surface. Each year, one country will be the official host of World Aqua Day. Its opening ceremony will be led by the head of the state of the hosting country. The 2nd World Aqua Day was officially opened by HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco, who will now pass that honour to the next head of the state.

Extracted Marine Debris Weight in Numbers

The target of the 3rd World Aqua day in 2024 is to unite 190 nations around the world to simultaneously perform a cleanup under and above the ocean surface. Each nation will have multiple ocean, lake and river cleanups in different cities. This will be the world’s largest ocean plastic and marine debris extraction initiative performed by mankind. The cleanup will last 24 hours due to the different time zones around the world, all media broadcasting will be screened live in the hosting country at the official opening ceremony. This spectacular and innovative environmental visual event will be an emotional journey and historical moment for the mankind.

Before OACM Group’s concept of World Aqua Day, the ocean cleanup was operating under Guwaa (Global Under Water Awareness Association) and was called Guwaa World Underwater Cleanup Day. The 1st Guwaa World Under Water Clean Up day was supported by Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation. 2nd Guwaa Ocean Cleanup was personally opened by HSH Prince Albert II in Monaco in a seaside ceremony. The clean-up included 60 participating nations that simultaneously extracted more than 250 tonnes of marine debris in just a few hours. This was the world’s largest simultaneous ocean cleanup. The ceremony for HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco was organzied by the IOC member and organizer of the Olympic Games in Lillehammer, Norway, Mr. Gerhard Heibert. He serves as the current World Aqua Day CEO appointed by its founder Mr. Kristijan Curavic.
