Our Ocean, Our Future 🌊

As we look back on the incredible journey of Ocean Week Brunei 2026, we’re reminded that every conversation, every partnership, every beach cleanup, every exhibition, every conference, and every step towards conservation was part of something much bigger.

This recap celebrates what we achieved together —but it also reminds us that our work doesn’t stop here.
Protecting our oceans isn’t a one-week commitment. It’s a shared responsibility that continues every single day. Together, let’s keep inspiring change, supporting sustainable practices, and creating a future where both our oceans and communities can thrive.
Thank you to everyone who joined us on this journey.

Ocean Week Brunei may be over, but the mission continues.

See you at Ocean Week Brunei 2027. đź’™

🌊 Future Ocean Changemakers Youth Forum 2026

The Future Ocean Changemakers Youth Forum 2026 concluded after two inspiring days of youth engagement, bringing together 180 participants from Brunei Darussalam and ASEAN+3 universities under the UBD-AUN Summer Camp Programme.

Organised by Poni Foundation in collaboration with Universiti Brunei Darussalam (UBD) as one of the signature youth programmes of Ocean Week Brunei 2026, this year’s forum, themed “The Next Blue Wave: Youth, Innovation & Ocean Opportunities”, encouraged young people to explore the future of ocean sustainability, marine innovation and Brunei’s growing blue economy.

The closing ceremony was graced by Yang Mulia Dr Haji Azman bin Ahmad, Permanent Secretary of Higher Education, Ministry of Education, and attended by His Excellency Michael Hoy, Australian High Commissioner to Brunei Darussalam, His Excellency Abel Guterres, Ambassador of Timor-Leste to Brunei Darussalam, alongside representatives from UBD, government agencies, partners and invited guests.

Participants gained first-hand exposure through site visits to the Royal Brunei Navy, Muara Port Company, Brunei Marine Police, Muara International Fish Landing, Department of Fisheries and Brunei Gas Carriers, before ending the forum with inspiring sessions on ocean leadership, storytelling and youth advocacy.

As part of Ocean Week Brunei’s long-term vision, the forum aims to empower the next generation of ocean changemakers by creating pathways for youth to explore careers, research, innovation, conservation and entrepreneurship while strengthening regional collaboration for a more sustainable blue future.

🎣 Hari Nelayan 2026 | Building Brunei’s Future Fisheries Together

As part of Hari Nelayan 2026, organised by the Department of Fisheries under the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, local fishermen came together with the Maritime and Port Authority of Brunei Darussalam (MPABD), Universiti Brunei Darussalam (UBD) and Poni Group Sdn Bhd for a hands-on reef ball fabrication activity in Kuala Belait.

2nd July, 2026 - A total of 32 fishermen took part in fabricating reef balls for the Rumah Fish Project—a Poni Group and Poni Foundation initiative developed through Ocean Week Brunei to restore fish habitats, strengthen sustainable fisheries and encourage greater community participation in marine conservation.

The programme was officiated by the Acting Belait District Officer, Haji Amirol Hafidzin bin Haji Muhammad, while Naziful Fua’ad bin Haji Muhammad, General Manager of Poni Marine, highlighted the importance of working alongside fishermen, whose knowledge and experience at sea are essential in building a more sustainable future for Brunei’s fisheries.

This July, 180 reef balls will be deployed across Pelong, Jerudong and Kuala Belait, creating new artificial reef habitats that will support fish stocks, enhance marine biodiversity and contribute to Brunei’s growing blue economy.

A sincere thank you to the Department of Fisheries, MPABD, UBD, our fishing communities and all partners for their continued collaboration in protecting our oceans and building a more resilient future for generations to come. 🌊💙
