About Blue Alliance Marine Protected Areas

We work with governments and partners to build and manage Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) in the Philippines, Indonesia, Zanzibar, and Belize that regenerate coral reef ecosystems and improve the lives of local communities. We are regenerating 1,280,000 ha of high-biodiversity coral reefs, protecting over 70 threatened species and improving the livelihoods of more than 20,000 people in coastal communities. Our four fundamental and interrelated fields of operation: - Science and Conservation - Community Development - Compliance - Sustainable Revenues Every Blue Alliance MPA is designed and managed to rewild ecosystems, improve food security, promote sustainable Blue Economy development for local communities, and enhance climate change resilience. Our experience has shown us that these goals are entirely compatible and achievable to create a successful MPA. We bridge the marine conservation financing gap through innovative, Blue Economy reef-positive businesses in and around the MPAs, collaborating with key partners and working with local communities. Our priority sectors include ecotourism, blue carbon projects, community-based aquaculture, and plastic recycling. We believe that our MPAs can become financially self-sustainable and independent from donors in the long term. Together we are helping the planet, one Marine Protected Area at a time.
