Who we are

We are a non-profit civil association created to recover and conserve marine and coastal environments using innovative methods for scientific research, education and outreach, and stakeholder participation to better understand and solve critical problems. Our efforts are global, with a special emphasis on endangered marine species, their habitats, and coastal communities.

Scientific innovation and education translated into actions presents a unique opportunity in the search for alternatives that foster change that will reduce negative effects of humans on our oceans.
