- Abstract
This document is an introduction to a special issue of the journal Oceanography focused on the National Sea Grant College Program and its contributions to enhancing the use and conservation of US coastal, marine, and Great Lakes resources. The National Sea Grant College Program is a federal-state partnership aimed at supporting research, education, extension, and outreach to promote the sustainable use and conservation of coastal and Great Lakes resources. The program collaborates with coastal and Great Lakes communities, governmental bodies, industries, and nonprofits to address pressing issues such as coastal erosion, water quality, fisheries management, aquaculture, and climate change adaptation. The special issue covers four focus areas: environmental literacy and workforce development, healthy coastal ecosystems, sustainable fisheries and aquaculture, and resilient communities and economies. The program is committed to inclusive engagement, diverse perspectives, and the co-production of knowledge to find sustainable solutions to coastal challenges.
