MARINE CONSERVATION

        
                Anambas holds a marine paradise of coral reefs and biodiversity, now under threat
        from climate change and marine debris

More than 1.2 million hectares in the Anambas Islands region are designated as Marine Recreational Park Anambas Island (MRPAI). This means that the regency is protected and managed through a zoning system. Despite being a protected area, the Anambas marine ecosystem is not immune to environmental problems like global warming and marine debris. In addition, the coral reefs are still recovering from destructive fishing practices of the past. The Anambas Foundation is committed to protecting and rehabilitating the marine ecosystem around the Anambas Islands through our Marine Conservation program. We work together with the local communities, government, and other marine conservation organisations as well as relevant stakeholders.
