YOUR CONTRIBUTION AS A BUSINESS OR A FUNDER MATTERS.

Whether you want to support an ambitious regional project or take part in targeted local activities, join our partnership to improve marine protection in the Mediterranean.

OUR OBJECTIVES

Each of our objectives translates into a major project, with pilot sites all around the Mediterranean Sea.

In addition, we develop smaller projects with a more targeted focus, or with a sub-regional reach.

Strengten marine protected areas

We ensure that marine protected areas are effective and sustain biodiversity and local communities.

Reduce bycatch and fishing impact on biodiversity

We improve the sustainability of fisheries and support small-scale fishers’ livelihoods.

50 partners ready to take action

Our partners have expertise that spans scientific research, policy and advocacy, MPA management, marine conservation financing, fisheries management, and capacity-building, including training and knowledge-sharing.

WORK TOGETHER

Within this strategy to accelerate our work towards effectively protecting the Mediterranean biodiversity, projects components are complementary to the other. It also represents a smaller project that can be taken in isolation.

At a finer scale, national partners in each site are responsible for their activities, and can partner with funders that share the same interest in their geographical or thematic priorities.

Whether you want to support an ambitious regional project or take part in targeted local activities, we invite you to join our partnership strategy. It will ensure coherence and knowledge-exchange between sites and partners, and bring the collaboration needed for effective conservation.
