Education for Conservation in West Papua
September 11, 2017 – 5:43 pm
This colourful ship in the photo behind the two happy snorkelling kids is the Kalabia. She cruises around Raja Ampat in West Papau engaging the natural curiosity of children in order to teach them about conservation, which in turn helps build community knowledge and awareness, pride, love, and a sense of ownership and responsibility for local marine resources.
By changing attitudes and behaviour, Kalabia inspires conservation of globally-important ecosystems in the heart of the coral triangle, and ensures food security and increased well-being for local residents for generations to come.
