Codes of Conduct provide clear guidelines for interacting with the Maldives’ marine environment. These protocols are essential for protecting the fragile ecosystems and ensuring the sustainability of marine life. By following these standards, both tourists and locals can contribute to the preservation of the Maldives’ unique underwater habitats.

Citizen science provides the opportunity for non-professional scientists to support research and collect data, contributing valuable information to scientific studies. In the Maldives, citizen science projects enable tourists and locals to assist in monitoring marine life and environmental changes, aiding in conservation efforts.

The marine environment encompasses not only the diverse marine life but also the habitats in which they thrive, such as mangroves, seagrass beds, and coral reefs. These ecosystems are vital for the health and sustainability of marine species and play a crucial role in protecting coastlines, supporting biodiversity, and maintaining water quality in the Maldives.

To learn more, there are a number of FREE online courses provided by some of our partners as well as other organizations dedicated to protecting the marine environment. These courses offer greater knowledge and practical skills to help you contribute to the conservation and sustainability of the Maldives’ precious marine ecosystems.
