The Coral Sea Foundation

Managed by the incredibly well-respected Dr. Andy Lewis, marine biologist, The Coral Sea Foundation raises awareness and of the ecological and social value of the Coral Sea and Eastern Coral Triangle, and is proactive in its sustainable management.

This region contains the last great reservoir of ultra-diverse coral reef in the world, yet most of it is remote and rarely visited, and there are insufficient marine protected areas to achieve robust conservation outcomes. 

Combining an ethos of science, gender equity and sustainability, the Foundation works with traditional owners to develop marine reserves that enhance fisheries and protect biodiversity, while delivering humanitarian aid to improve the basic quality of life of people in our partner villages.
