WHAT WE DO | SEACOLOGY Seacology’s mission is to protect threatened island ecosystems all over the world. We do that by working directly with communities, helping them to preserve their cultures and improve their lives while saving precious island habitats. KEY ISLAND ECOSYSTEMS Key Island Ecosystems. Seacology works to protect all kinds of island habitats, from coral reefs to coastal wetlands to mountain forests (and more). But recently, more and more of our projects have concentrated on three island ecosystems: mangroves, peatlands, and seagrass. Conserving these ecosystems has special importance as weface the

SEACOLOGY AND THE CLIMATE CRISIS Seacology and the Climate Crisis. We are often asked whether or not Seacology projects combat the global climate crisis. The answer is an emphatic yes.

GRAND ETANG FOREST RESERVE The 3,088-acre Grand Etang Forest Reserve, established in 1906, is the oldest and largest protected area in Grenada. Grand Etang’s varied elevation and terrain maintain several different ecological subsystems, culminating in elfin woodlands high up the slopes of the reserve’s central mountains. The focal point of the forest reserve is the 36-acre Grand Etang Lake, WOBURN-CALIVIGNY MARINE PROTECTED AREA The Woburn-Calivigny Marine Protected Area, which extends between Woburn and Calivigny Bays, contains the largest intact mangrove ecosystem in Grenada. The mangroves provide critical habitat and erosion protection over three miles of coastline. The area is an important nursery for commercial fish species. It provides nesting, roosting, and feeding areas for resident and migratory birds.

The project will protect all 21,782 acres (8,815 hectares) of Sri Lanka’s existing mangrove forests by providing alternative job training and microloans to approximately 12,000 impoverished women who live in 1,500 small communities adjacent to the nation’s mangroveALABAT MUNICIPALITY

At Seacology, we believe that environmental issues are human issues. When an island community wants to protect a forest or marine area, we offer a grant that will benefit the whole community—for example, a school, ecotourism center, or water system.THE SEACOLOGY PRIZE
Each year, we award the Seacology Prize to an islander for exceptional achievement in preserving island environments and culture. This honor comes with an award of $10,000 and a trip to the United States for a public award ceremony in October.

Kimbe Bay lies on the north side of West New Britain Island, northeast of mainland Papua New Guinea. A local NGO, Mahonia Na Dari (MND) in Settin Bay within Kimbe Bay, has been helping four local Bakovi communities set aside marine protection areas. In PNG, these are called locally managed marine areas (LMMAs). The Kimbe PORTLAND BIGHT PROTECTED AREA The Portland Bight Protected Area (PBPA) was created by the Jamaican government in 1999, and is the country’s largest protected area. The coastline includes the largest mangrove system in Jamaica, which together with extensive seagrass beds and coral reefs, likely contains the largest nursery area for fish and shellfish on the island.

OVIEDO LAGOON
Jaragua National Park, located in the Dominican Republic’s extreme southwest, was established in 1983. There are very few park rangers, however, and virtually no patrolling of the park’s 593 square miles.BARANGAY SAN PEDRO
The barangay (village) of San Pedro lies along the coast of Biri Island, in Northern Samar. Its population of 1,138 relies heavily on fishing for subsistence. Potable water is scarce, and health services are very limited. The Center for Empowerment and Resource Development is working with San Pedro to implement a coastal resource managementprogram.

What We Do
WE WORK ONLY ON ISLANDS, BECAUSE THEY ARE UNIQUELY VULNERABLE. In the last 500 years, 80% OF ALL RECORDED EXTINCTIONS OCCURRED ONISLANDS.
Island communities face constant pressure to exploit naturalresources.
But if a community wants to preserve its forest or sea, Seacology makes a grant for something the whole community needs, like a school, solar power, or help with ecotourism. Seacology helps island communities prosper by protecting resources—not exploiting them.Learn more
