Engaging children was crucial for adopting a marine sustainability framework that recognises intergenerational justice concerns and upholds children's rights. Children in the region are active participants in fishing activities and play a key role in sustaining the connections among people, the ocean, and marine life. Just like adults, they too can exercise their rights and responsibilities toward the ocean. Art workshops allowed them to take part in co-building our research agenda. 030 ; 106
