Official Launch: Seaweed Association of South Africa (MPA Day)

This year’s MPA Day theme is connection—a fitting opportunity to introduce the work of the Seaweed Association of South Africa.

As a non-profit organisation, the Association exists to bridge the gap between three key pillars of the seaweed sector:

• Conservation
• Commercialisation
• Science

Globally, the seaweed industry stands at a pivotal moment. The choices we make now will shape its future. The Association’s core mission is to help navigate the delicate balance between protecting our kelp forests and unlocking the sustainable, commercial potential of this remarkable resource.

Join us at the Save Our Seas Foundation Shark Exhibit (Two Oceans Aquarium)

When: 05 August 2025
Time: 18:30 for 19:00

The event will be hosted in a hybrid format, with 50 seats available for in-person attendance. If those spots are filled, you’ll automatically be granted access to join us online.

We look forward to shaping the future of the industry together — with your valuable insights leading the way.

Please RSVP before the 29th of July for catering purposes.
