Blue Ventures is an award-winning social enterprise that works with local communities to conserve threatened marine and coastal environments, both protecting biodiversity and alleviating poverty.
Our business models include ecotourism, sustainable fisheries management, aquaculture and blue carbon.
Our acclaimed conservation programmes work with some of the world's poorest coastal people to develop conservation and poverty alleviation initiatives that protect biodiversity and coastal livelihoods. The results of our work help us to propose new ideas to benefit coastal communities everywhere.
Summary
Blue Ventures develops and scales innovative models for marine conservation within some of the poorest tropical coastal communities.
We work in tropical, frequently very remote, places where marine resources are vital to local people and economies and where there is a fundamental need to support human development. The results of our work help us to innovate new ways to protect marine biodiversity that benefit coastal people everywhere.
