Thank you for your continued support of the Coral Reef Conservation project in the Seychelles. Your contributions play a vital role in advancing Seychelles' conservation efforts and empowering our research on reef health and marine debris.
Your generosity has enabled us to carry out critical tasks, including equipping our team and sustaining our ongoing activities. Here’s a glimpse of what we’ve been working on recently:
- Biodiversity Surveys: Alongside our routine data collection on fish, invertebrates, and corals, we’ve conducted specialized endangered species and biodiversity surveys. Your support has been instrumental in providing the resources needed for these efforts.
- Coral Nurseries: We’ve been busy fragmenting corals to expand two coral nurseries. These nurseries are crucial for restoring damaged reef ecosystems.
- Community Engagement: We value working with school children and building their understanding and appreciation of the ocean and discussing the importance of recycling. Working with students is so crucial to the future of our oceans.
- Beach Cleanups: Our regular beach cleanups continue to make a difference.We have collected well over 100 kg of litter this year.
- Shark Monitoring: We’ve had the privilege of assisting with BRUV (Baited Remote Underwater Video) research to monitor sharks and other key predators in Northern Mahé’s waters, contributing valuable data to marine conservation.
Thanks to your support, we continue our essential research, education initiatives, coral reef nursery work, and debris removal from oceans, beaches, and mangroves.
Your contributions are making a real impact, and we look forward to sharing more progress in the future. Together, we’re creating a healthier, more sustainable marine environment. Thank you!
