Globally, coastal communities find themselves at a a critical juncture. Being at the forefront of the disruption that climate change brings with it, their strength and resilience will be critical for the health of our seas in the future.
Our approach is one that seeks to reinforce the bond within communities and amongst stakeholders, and to support them in strengthening the respect and relationship that they have with their marine environment.
We are interested in supporting initiatives that local communities design and implement for themselves, empowering them to be the drivers of positive change for themselves and for their future generations. Ownership is critical.

We seek to engage the community with inititaives in which they can see and feel the impact, ones that make a difference in their lives and that serve to build a stronger, more resilient future. Impact is a catalysing force – with the power to nurture collective action for a common good.Â

We support communities in getting organised, provide training in organisational development, financial literacy and transparency, data analysis and planning. This enables community-based management that is adaptable, informed and robust.

We do things we can measure – it’s part of the process. In quantifying a challenge or the effectiveness of a solution, we can make the case for behaviour change; we can rally people behind a shared goal; we can scale up solutions; we can spread the word; we can do more.Â

Our approach has remained unchanged from day one.
This ‘cyclical’ model keeps our core elements of a data driven, holsitic and collaborative effort at the forefront.
The strength of this system is that allows for the input of all relevant stakeholders, as well as providing the opportunity for honest refelection and adaption where necessary. On the occasions where expectations are not fulfilled, we can ensure that lessons are learned, and taken forward with us when finding new strategies.
All projects have to start somewhere. A ‘pilot’ of any initiative serves to identify both potential strengths and weaknesses.
Rigorous data collection, reporting and analysis permits informed decision making and monitors change.
Our successes have been built upon this model of collaborative, data driven implementation. Our projects (links below) show examples of this in action.
Drawing on the lessons learned, we can identify the opportunities to grow a project, making its effects more widely felt.
