The “Effective Citizen Science Program” aims to educate and engage volunteers in coral reef conservation.
With a focus on both awareness and practical efforts, the program includes workshops on reef ecology, human impacts, and local marine species. Participants learn to identify corals, monitor reef health, and contribute to restoration projects, such as creating artificial reefs and growing corals. The program takes a holistic, sustainable approach to ecosystem restoration, focusing on long-term reef health and resilience. By the end, volunteers gain knowledge of coral ecology, climate change impacts, and conservation strategies, contributing to the protection and recovery of coral reefs.
