As of January and February of this year, 2010, the Coral Restoration Foundation was invited into and visited two Caribbean island nations. The overal purpose was/is to begin discussing, developing, and eventually implementing coral nursery/reef restoration programs for local dive industries, community development, as well as ecotourism driven initiatives. Both of these programs are in their infancy stage and information will become availalble as they begin to mature.
These are certainly exciting times for us at CRF. Each day we are getting closer to taking local, grassroots conservation programs to the global level and empowering coastal communities to take their own action towards resource and reef management.
We will be posting photos and insight into the development of these projects and potenial others too over the next several weeks. Please stay tuned and updated with our endeavours and look for ways you too can help.
Thank you!
the Coral Restoration Foundation.
