The "Ocean Education Children's Summit in Tohoku" was held in Kesennuma-city, an area still recovering from the Great East Japan Earthquake. This summit served as the culmination of combined efforts between the education boards of Kesennuma City and Hirono City in Iwate Prefecture regarding the promotion of ocean education. The children were able to further their mutual understanding through making presentations and exchanging opinions on ocean education activities being undertaken in various areas of the Tohoku region. The summit allowed us to reconfirm the importance of learning through the ocean, and also gave us hints for the further promotion of ocean education.
