Empowering Filipino coastal communities to sustainably manage and protect their vital marine resources through science, education, and grassroots action.
People and the Sea is a marine conservation NGO founded in 2015 on Malapascua Island, dedicated to empowering Filipino coastal communities to sustainably manage and protect their vital marine resources.
Their holistic approach recognizes that healthy seas begin on land, driving community-led initiatives spanning waste reduction, sustainable fishing, marine research, youth education, and economic resilience.
What makes them special is their commitment to locally-designed and locally-led programs, ensuring that conservation efforts are shaped by the communities they serve rather than imposed from outside.
Upcoming dives, surveys, volunteer days, and community events.
