The Maldives Ocean Alliance emerged from a shared recognition of the urgent need to address the threats facing our marine ecosystems. In response to the fragmented nature of existing conservation efforts, stakeholders came together to form a unified coalition.
Together, we leverage our collective expertise and resources to address pressing challenges facing the Maldives' marine environment.
