Ocean swimming... and connecting with blue spaces
Update: 2023-11-30
Description
Rebecca Olive is an ocean swimmer whose academic research explores the role of sport and leisure in human and environmental health. In particular, her work explores the practices and cultures of ocean swimming and surfing to understand how human and environmental well-being interact, as well as our relationships to all things blue-space, such as sharks, animals, plastics, pollution and health. Her Moving Oceans website examines how participation in ocean sports shapes our behaviours towards taking care of the oceans. She has also published some fantastic reads in The Conversation - we talk about these two in the podcast:
- When we swim in the ocean, we enter another animal’s home. Here’s how to keep us all safe.
- Olympic swimming in the Seine highlights efforts to clean up city rivers worldwide.
