The Stories Behind Our Work

Bontosua Community Restoration Team, Indonesia

For 20 years, working alongside local communities, we have been restoring degraded coral reefs in central Indonesia. In 2024, a team from the local Bontosuan community, trained by Mars, initiated their own indepednent restoration project, demonstrating their dedication to securing a future for their reefs.

Save The Beach, Maldives

Over 2024, we partnered with Save The Beach Maldives, a Maldivian NGO, to launch The Maldives Coral Restoration Program, the first nationwide coral restoration initiative across The Maldives. The Program aims to help rebuild resilient reef systems across the country by expanding the Villingili reef restoration site by 500 sqm and providing coral reef restoration training to other local island communities.
