I-Ocean Foundation kanye nerejista ka-Lloyd's Register Foundation Heritage and Education Center Partner to Protect Ocean Heritage

WASHINGTON, DC [May 15, 2023] - I-Ocean Foundation (TOF) ngokuziqhenya umemezela namuhla ubudlelwano beminyaka emibili ne I-Lloyd's Register Foundation (LRF), inhlangano esiza abantulayo emhlabeni wonke ezimele esebenzela ukunjiniyela umhlaba ophephile. I-LRF Heritage & Education Centre (HEC) igxile ekwandiseni ukuqonda nokubaluleka kokuphepha olwandle kanye nokuhlola izifundo esingazifunda esikhathini esidlule ezingasisiza silolonge umnotho wolwandle ophephile wakusasa. I-TOF kanye ne-LRF HEC izoqwashisa ngokubaluleka kwamagugu olwandle (imvelo namasiko) futhi ifundise izakhamuzi zasolwandle ukuthi zenze ngamalungelo azo kanye nezibopho zazo maqondana nolwandle oluphephile noluzinzile.

Onyakeni olandelayo, i-TOF ne-LRF HEC izosebenzisana ekusunguleni iphrojekthi yokufunda olwandle - Izinsongo Emagugu Ethu Olwandle — ukugqamisa izinsongo ulwandle oluthize olusebenzisayo okungenzeka lube nazo kukho kokubili kwethu Amagugu Ezamasiko Angaphansi kwamanzi (UCH) kanye nefa lethu lemvelo. Izinsongo ezivela Ukuphahlazeka Okungase Kungcolise (PPWs), I-Bottom Trawling, Futhi I-Deep Seabed Mining kube nomthelela ekuphepheni kwendawo yasolwandle, iGugu leSiko elingaphansi kwamanzi, kanye nempilo nendlela yokuziphilisa yabantu encike olwandle oluhlanzekile.

Njengomunye wemibili kuphela egunyazwe ngokusemthethweni imisebenzi ye-Underwater Cultural Heritage ngaphansi kwe Iminyaka Eyishumi Yesayensi Yasolwandle Yentuthuko Esimeme, iphrojekthi izo:

1. Shicilela uchungechunge lwezithenjwa lwezincwadi ezintathu, ezitholakala mahhala kubo bonke: “Izinsongo Emagugu Ethu Olwandle”, kuhlanganise 1) Izingozi Ezingcolisa okungenzeka, 2) I-Bottom Trawling, ne-3) Izimayini ze-Deep Seabed;
2. Ukuhlanganisa inethiwekhi yomhlaba wonke yochwepheshe ukuze unikeze okokufaka okugunyazayo okuqhubekayo ukwazisa ukuguqulwa kwenqubomgomo; futhi
3. Bandakanya futhi ufundise abasebenzisi abaningi bezilwandle nabakhi benqubomgomo ukuze bakhuthaze isenzo sokulondoloza imvelo kanye nezinketho zokuphatha ezingokoqobo.

"Sijabule kakhulu ukujoyina i-LRF ukuze siqwashise umhlaba wonke mayelana nokwandisa izingxoxo zamagugu olwandle nokusebenzisa lokho kufunda okuthuthukisiwe kolwandle ukuze siqhubekisele phambili izinguquko zenqubomgomo," kusho uMark J. Spalding, uMongameli we-The Ocean Foundation. “Nakuba iningi lethu lijwayele i-Underwater Cultural Heritage njengokuphahlazeka komkhumbi okuvamile, asivamile ukucabanga ngokulinganayo ngamagugu ethu emvelo, njengezilwane zasolwandle kanye nezindawo ezizidingayo, kanye nobunkimbinkimbi bezinsongo ezihlanganyelwayo zombili ezibhekana nazo kusukela ekusetshenzisweni kolwandle oluthile. . Sihlonipheke ngokusebenza nochwepheshe abahamba phambili bamazwe ngamazwe njenge-Maritime Historian kanye ne-Archeologist, UCharlotte Jarvis, kanye Nochwepheshe Wezomthetho Wamazwe Ngamazwe, Ole Varmer, ngemva kokusebenza kwakhe iminyaka engu-30 ne-US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, kulo mzamo.”

“Nakuba iningi lethu lijwayele i-Underwater Cultural Heritage njengokuphahlazeka komkhumbi okuvamile, asivamile ukucabanga ngokulinganayo ngamagugu ethu emvelo, njengezilwane zasolwandle kanye nezindawo ezizidingayo, kanye nobunkimbinkimbi bezinsongo ezihlanganyelwayo zombili ezibhekana nazo kusukela ekusetshenzisweni kolwandle oluthile. .”

Ukusebenzisana phakathi kweGugu leSiko langaphansi kwamanzi (UCH), amagugu emvelo, nezinsongo ezilethwayo kuyahlukahluka emhlabeni wonke. Le phrojekthi izobandakanya ukuqoqa ubufakazi balezi zinselelo zokuphepha emanzini ase-Atlantic, Mediterranean, Baltic, Black Sea, nasePacific. Isibonelo, izindawo ezisogwini lwaseNtshonalanga Afrika ziye zangaphansi kwazo ukuxhashazwa ngokudoba, hhayi nje ukubeka engozini uhlobo lwezinhlanzi nabadobi abahilelekile kodwa futhi i-UCH emanzini asogwini. ENingizimu-mpumalanga ye-Asia, umthamo omkhulu we IMpi Yezwe Inhlekelele engase ibe nokungcola ibeka engcupheni izilwane zasolwandle kodwa futhi ikhona njengamaGugu Amasiko Angaphansi Kwamanzi ngokwawo futhi kufanele avikelwe. ENingizimu-mpumalanga ye-Asia, izimayini zasolwandle nazo zisongela imikhuba yamasiko ekudala ikhona ebizwa ngokuthi amagugu angaphatheki. 

Le phrojekthi isebenza ukuqoqa ubufakazi kanye nokubizelwa esenzweni. Kubandakanya i-TOF encoma ukumiswa kwemisebenzi kuze kube kwenziwa ucwaningo lwesayensi, ukuhlanganisa ulwazi oluyisisekelo lwamagugu olwandle Ekuhloleni Umthelela Wezemvelo, Ukuhlelwa Kwendawo Yasolwandle, kanye nokuqokwa kwe-Environmental Impact Assessments. Izindawo Zasolwandle Ezivikelwe.

Umsebenzi uwela ngaphansi kwe Uhlelo lwe-Cultural Heritage Framework (CHFP), esinye seZenzo zokuqala ezizogunyazwa ngokusemthethweni njengengxenye yeshumi leminyaka le-UN, 2021-2030 (Isenzo #69). I-Ocean Decade ihlinzeka ngohlaka oluhlanganisayo lososayensi nababambiqhaza abavela emikhakheni eyahlukene ukuthuthukisa ulwazi lwesayensi kanye nokusebenzisana okudingekayo ukuze kusheshiswe futhi kuhlanganiswe inqubekelaphambili kusayensi yolwandle - ukuze kuzuzwe ukuqonda okungcono kohlelo lolwandle kanye nokuletha izixazululo ezisekelwe kwisayensi ukuze kuzuzwe I-Ajenda yangowezi-2030. Abalingani bephrojekthi abengeziwe bahlanganisa I-Ocean Decade Heritage Network futhi UMkhandlu Wamazwe Ngamazwe Wezikhumbuzo Namasayithi-IKomidi Lamazwe Ngamazwe Ngamagugu Ezamasiko Angaphansi Kwamanzi.

Mayelana ne-Ocean Foundation

Njengokuphela kwesisekelo somphakathi solwandle, umgomo we-The Ocean Foundation (TOF)'s 501(c)(3) uwukusekela, ukuqinisa, nokukhuthaza lezo zinhlangano ezizinikele ekubuyiseleni emuva inkambiso yokucekelwa phansi kwezindawo zolwandle emhlabeni jikelele. Igxilisa ubuchwepheshe bayo obuhlangene ezinsongweni ezivelayo ukuze kutholakale izixazululo ezisezingeni eliphezulu kanye namasu angcono okuqaliswa. I-Ocean Foundation yenza izinhlelo eziwumgogodla zokulwa nokugcwala kwe-asidi olwandle, ukuthuthukisa ukuqina okuluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka, ukubhekana nokungcoliswa kwepulasitiki yasolwandle emhlabeni wonke, kanye nokuthuthukisa ulwazi lolwandle lwabaholi bezemfundo yasolwandle. Iphinde isingathe ngokwezimali amaphrojekthi angaphezu kwama-55 emazweni angama-25. I Izinsongo Emagugu Ethu Olwandle Iphrojekthi yobambiswano idonsa emsebenzini we-TOF wangaphambilini ku Ukumiswa kwe-Deep Seabed Mining, izinsongo zamagugu amasiko angaphansi kwamanzi futhi igqamisa i ubungozi ku-UCH kusuka ezimayini.

Mayelana ne-Lloyd's Register Foundation Heritage and Education Center

I-Lloyd's Register Foundation iyinhlangano esiza umphakathi ezimele emhlabeni wonke eyakha imifelandawonye yomhlaba wonke ukuze kube noshintsho. I-Lloyd's Register Foundation, Heritage & Education Center ingumtapo wolwazi obhekene nomphakathi futhi igcina kungobo yomlando izinto eziphathelene neminyaka engaphezu kuka-260 yesayensi yasolwandle nobunjiniyela nomlando. Lesi sikhungo sigxile ekwandiseni ukuqonda nokubaluleka kokuphepha olwandle kanye nokuhlola izifundo esingazifunda esikhathini esidlule ezingasisiza silolonge umnotho wolwandle ophephile wakusasa. I-LRF HEC kanye ne-TOF nabo basebenzisana ukuze bahlele uhlelo olusha oluqhubekayo - Ukufunda Enkathini Edlule. Lokhu kuzogxilisa ukubaluleka kombono ongokomlando ekutholeni izixazululo ezinseleleni zamanje ezixhumene nokuphepha kolwandle, ukongiwa, kanye nokusetshenziswa okuzinzile.
