Conservation impact
Reef-World’s work through our flagship initiative – Green Fins – has been proven to reduce threats to, and protect, one of the world’s most valuable ecosystems: coral reefs.
By inspiring, educating and empowering the people who live with and rely on coral reefs to take a stand in the front lines of ocean conservation, we are making a tangible difference to the protection of these delicate ecosystems. Based on sound science and over 20 years’ experience in the field, our work delivers practical solutions for marine conservation around the world. We are dedicated to supporting, inspiring and empowering governments, businesses, communities and individuals around the world to protect their precious underwater ecosystems.
As a charity, we are recognised as the leading voice on practical sustainability solutions for the scuba diving and snorkelling industry; driving sustainable behaviours for environmental protection.
