Our highly acclaimed conservation programmes work with some of the world's poorest coastal communities to develop conservation and alternative income initiatives to protect biodiversity and coastal livelihoods. The results of our work help us to propose new ideas to benefit coastal communities everywhere.
Our work is grounded in community partnerships and uncompromising science. From community empowerment to bioeconomic modelling of marine reserves, all our conservation programmes are led by local communities and guided by rigorous scientific analysis.
At its core Blue Ventures is a social enterprise - innovating new approaches to financing marine conservation, and generating much all of its own conservation funding independently.
Education is fundamental to poverty alleviation in resource-dependent coastal communities. Blue Ventures leverages its web presence to attract investment in education, training and capacity building in partner communities.
Conserving marine biodiversity means changing the way people interact with oceans. We use innovative environmental education programmes to change the way people view their relationship with the sea.
Help Blue Ventures reach our goal for the the next school year: sponsor 300 new students in Velondriake and focus on girls' education.
Blue Ventures fosters working partnerships with communities, NGOs, governments and private sector organisations to promote marine conservation. Meet some of our strategic partners.
