OceanX Education Hackathons

Where Science Meets Storytelling

OceanX Education Hackathons are transit programs that bring together accomplished creatives, scientists, and technologists to reimagine how ocean science is shared with the world through immersive media.

Designed for game developers, scientists, digital artists, educators, and immersive media experts, these programs invite participants to co-create engaging, interactive prototypes. From interactive games to immersive media, hackathons leverage talented individuals’ skills and expertise to collaboratively create new education approaches that make ocean literacy digestible and entertaining, to increase ocean literacy globally. 

By blending cutting-edge technology with scientific insight, participants translate complex marine topics into compelling, creative experiences that resonate with diverse audiences. These hackathons are more than just sprints—they’re incubators for innovation at the intersection of science, storytelling, and play. 

Whether you're building games, prototyping VR experiences, or experimenting with AI, OceanX Hackathons offer a space to turn curiosity into creation—and help shape the future of ocean education and advocacy through media that truly connects.
