About Us
Vision
“For the ocean around Bermuda to be widely understood, appreciated and protected.”
Mission
“To nurture an appreciation for the ocean around Bermuda and promote environmental
stewardship through education, experiences and exploration.”
BUEI invites you to join our Wave For Change.
Connect with our Vision and Mission. Explore the benefits of BUEI membership. Discover our educational impact. Inspire future generations of ocean advocates and environmental stewards. Your contributions make all the difference and help support BUEI’s vital programmes that build stronger community connections and impact over 7,000 students annually.
As we commemorate our 25th anniversary in 2022, there is much to celebrate and much more to be done. With the global attention on the health of the world’s oceans, and the direct impact to Bermuda from rising sea levels attributed to global warming, BUEI is in a unique position to help individuals of all ages form a personal connection with the ocean, and to inspire them to take action to protect it.
Through building a greater appreciation of ocean eco-systems and increase awareness of how ocean health impacts every visitor to our facility, wherever they reside, BUEI will continue to influence the attitudes and behaviors of visitors from around the world for another 25 years.
BUEI is a registered non-profit (#326), and we receive no government funding.
