"In the end, we will conserve only what we love; we will love only what we understand, and we will understand only what we are taught."
Baba Dioum

Dive into the heart of the ocean with us. Fano Unimar odv is a non-profit association dedicated to sharing the wonders and discoveries of marine research with all citizens. Our mission? To inspire a deeper connection with the sea, foster understanding, and drive collective action to protect our planet’s most vital resource.

Why the Ocean Matters

The oceans cover about 70% of the Earth’s surface, yet much of their beauty and complexity remains hidden beneath the waves. These vast waters are not just expanses of blue—they regulate our climate, provide essential resources, and are home to an extraordinary diversity of life. But there’s still so much to discover, understand, and protect.
