A Purpose-Driven Expedition Across Earth’s Waterways
Our Voyage is the multi-year global exploration undertaken by the Expedition Audacity Research Foundation — a deliberate journey of science, collaboration, cultural listening, and frontline documentation.
This is not adventure for its own sake. It is a sustained presence in regions where climate change is reshaping ecosystems and communities, often beyond the reach of consistent monitoring or public attention. Our voyage exists to learn, collaborate, and ensure that what is happening is documented responsibly and shared with integrity.
Our voyage functions as a moving research platform, a classroom at sea, and a documentation initiative — grounded in science and shaped by collaboration.
We travel slowly and intentionally, using sail and low-impact methods wherever operationally possible, because the way we move through the world matters.
Along the way, we:
Every engagement begins with consent, respect, and shared accountability.

Our voyage is designed as a long-term, global undertaking rather than a single, fixed route.
We prioritise regions where environmental change intersects with deep cultural knowledge and long-standing stewardship. Routes evolve over time in response to scientific need, community invitation, seasonal conditions, and operational realities.
Below are examples of regions engaged across different phases of the voyage.

Working alongside Inuit and northern communities, we document changing sea ice conditions, marine mammal migration, and ecosystem dynamics — informed by both scientific observation and Indigenous knowledge systems.
These regions represent some of the fastest-changing marine environments on the planet and form a foundational focus of our northern work.

We approach these waters not as record-seekers, but as collaborators — respecting traditional navigation knowledge, environmental context, and the realities faced by communities living with rapid transformation.
This region reflects the broader challenges of climate-driven access, governance, and stewardship.

From tidal estuaries to inland corridors, we collaborate with riverine communities to study water quality, biodiversity, and seasonal change, while supporting community-led documentation and data stewardship.
River systems are critical arteries of ecological and human health, linking upland decisions to downstream impact.

As the voyage continues, additional regions may include island nations, equatorial coastlines, temperate oceans, and other river systems — guided by scientific relevance, partner relationships, and shared priorities.
The voyage remains adaptive by design.
Our voyage advances four interconnected objectives:
Supporting research designed and prioritised in collaboration with Indigenous and local partners.
Gathering biological, physical, and observational data to better understand change over time.
Working with communities to document fisheries, erosion, water quality, and adaptation strategies.
Transforming field research into educational resources, storytelling, and learning opportunities that return value to partners and students.
The regions we travel are not chosen for novelty. They are places where environmental change is already reshaping daily life, cultural practices, and ecological balance.
In northern waters, warming seas and altered migration patterns affect food systems and community continuity. Along major river systems, changes in flow and quality influence both ecosystems and human health. In historically ice-bound routes, transformation is not theoretical — it is lived.
Our goal is not to observe these changes from afar, but to be present with partners, listen carefully, and contribute to shared understanding that supports resilience and informed decision-making.
Our voyage is shaped by principles that prioritise responsibility over speed:
These principles guide every expedition, partnership, and programme connected to our voyage.
There are several ways to engage with and support this work:
Your involvement helps ensure this voyage continues with integrity and purpose.
This voyage does not end at a port.
It carries forward through the relationships it builds, the knowledge shared, and the responsibility to act on what is learned.
Our role is not to define these places, but to ensure their realities are recorded with accuracy, care, and respect.
