Activities

All things SDG14 UNESCO Decade Of Ocean Science
and

As we proceed to identify and standardize threats to coral reefs and share that information, we have seen how the items listed below are of great importance to reefs worldwide.

  • to foster an environment of collaboration among agencies around the world for standardization and the sharing of data gathered and for concerns that affect reefs worldwide, Citizen Scientists, local governments and local stakeholders.
  • to create awareness by education through an outreach program to reach current consumers of ocean resources and future consumers;
  • to create a global GIS dashboard and database with data from a network of volunteer citizen scientists that regularly monitor and report on reef health;
  • to involve local community action to create requirements for re-zoning parcels that could affect downhill geology or agricultural runoff that may negatively affect or even kill reefs in proximity by using ecologically sound and economically sustainable solutions.
