The Coral Triangle has more coral and reef fish species than anywhere else in the world and is a source of food and livelihoods for more than 150 million people.

But unsustainable fishing practices, coastal development and coral bleaching caused by climate change are degrading reef systems and rapidly depleting fisheries.

The Conservancy is working with local communities, governments, donor agencies and local and international organizations to strengthen marine protected areas (MPAs) here and develop a strategy to protect the region’s valuable fisheries.
