Marine Conservation Institute Announces Key Partnership with the Edges of Earth Expedition Team to Expand the Nonprofit’s Globally-Recognized Blue Parks Initiative
The Edges of Earth ambassadors will explore Marine Conservation Institute’s keystone marine protected areas in the Blue Parks Network to chronicle the ocean conservation success stories in key regions—above and below water.[New York, 6 March 2024]
Today, Marine Conservation Institute, a leading non-profit organization committed to ocean conservation, proudly announces their collaboration with the women-led dive team spearheading Edges of Earth; a 2-year expedition traveling to the planet’s most remote and interesting locations, telling positive progress stories about people on the frontlines of ocean conservation and the habitats, marine life and communities they work tirelessly to save.
Traveling to various marine protected areas (MPAs) around the global ocean, the Edges of Earth ambassadors will highlight positive and impactful on-the-ground partner stories from Marine Conservation Institute’s Blue Parks network that reach the next generation by sharing solutions and ways to directly get involved.
As a catalyst for the partnership, the Edges of Earth team will share stories from California’s awarded Blue Park, the Northern Channel Islands MPAs (National Park, National Marine Sanctuary, and California State Marine Reserves) from March 6 -12, 2024 and will emphasize Blue Parks’ aim to unite the ocean’s best protected places and the people who champion them in a strategic network to save life in the sea.
The Edges of Earth team will work with Marine Conservation Institute to highlight the people who are responsible for establishing and maintaining the successful MPAs that have earned Blue Parks Awards by meeting science-based conservation standards. As professional scuba divers, the ambassador team will also document the flourishing marine life below water at each Blue Park, highlighting what the Blue Park managers are safeguarding everyday.
