We work at multiple scales from local to global<\/a> to ensure that coral reefs thrive for generations to come. <\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

When we reduce local-level threats to reefs\u2014such as pollution, sedimentation, overfishing, or unsustainable tourism\u2014reefs are healthier and more capable of withstanding the effects of climate change. We work in partnership with local communities, nonprofit organizations, scientists, corporations, governments, and funders to build effective and sustainable management systems that ensure reefs thrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hawaiian Islands<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our work in <\/span>Hawai\u02bbi<\/a> focuses on ensuring coral reefs have the clean, clear water they need. Hawai\u02bbi has some of the highest marine endemism on Earth and about 85 percent of the United States\u2019 coral reefs.<\/span> <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Western Caribbean <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our work in the\u00a0Western Caribbean<\/a> focuses on building partnerships with local communities and organizations to reduce local threats to reefs. This region has the second largest barrier reef in the world (the Mesoamerican Reef) and spans the coasts of Mexico, Belize, Guatemala, and Honduras.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Globally, we lead a new era of reef conservation<\/a> that focuses on reducing threats to reefs so they can adapt to climate change and facilitates new scientific understandings of coral evolution. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
