Welcome to the release of our new series, "War On Nature: Uganda"!
read moreFor many years, countries established new Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) with great fanfare, but few are actually protected against illegal fishing, reef destruction and marine wildlife poaching. Without real enforcement and penalties for our existing MPAs, the oceans will continue to be ravaged.
Our goal is to deploy Global Park Defense with Marine Monitor radars in every capable endangered MPA in the world. We work to secure critical support from donors like you – families, foundations, dive groups and others to stop illegal fishing, bombing, poisoning and reef destruction.
To learn more about our efforts to protect the world's last pristine marine ecosystems, watch the video above and read our Marine Protection Impact Report!
