Coral Reef Alliance (CORAL) |
|
| |
The Coral Reef Alliance (CORAL) promotes coral reef conservation around the world by working with the dive industry, governments, local communities and other organizations to protect and manage coral reefs, establish marine parks, fund conservation efforts, and raise public awareness with the mission to keep coral reefs alive for future generations.
CORAL invests time, energy and resources in creating Coral Reef Parks -- areas set aside to protect and preserve the beauty and health of coral reefs worldwide. CORAL contributes grants ranging from $500 to $15,000 to local organizations in coral reef areas, including the Caribbean and the Pacific. Grants have been used to purchase outboard motors for boats used to patrol marine protected areas, help curb cyanide fishing practices, and provide emergency relief for hurricane-struck reefs. Currently our grants support projects that strengthen Coral Reef Parks. CORAL participates in governmental and non-governmental meetings that help create policy to protect coral reefs locally and set the global strategy for coral reef conservation. CORAL partners with the dive industry to promote responsible diving and a commitment to marine conservation within the industry. CORAL raises public awareness about coral reefs and the threats they face through various mediums including in-flight videos, educational materials such as the Coral Friendly Guidelines and Coral Reef Factsheets, and our website, which is the most visited site for coral reefs. CORAL gathers the support of thousands of divers, snorkelers and other coral reef enthusiasts to form a strong membership that convinces funders and policy-makers of the importance of reef conservation. |
