The Gulf of Maine Marine Education Association (GOMMEA) hosted the annual conference of the National Marine Educators Association in Portland, Maine, in July 2007. At the sold-out conference, GOMMEA hosted the first meeting of a new Traditional Ecological Knowledge Committee, bringing native and first nations people together from as far away as Hawai’i and as nearby as the Penobscot Nation. Rave reviews were received for the job GOMMEA did in hosting the conference.
