Our work
Marine protection through five pillars
Research
Biodiversity monitoring, scientific diving and threat tracking —abandoned fishing gear, coral bleaching and strandings— in the Colombian Caribbean. The data we gather feeds the Observatory and stays open to whoever needs it.
We offer it as a service
Safety and Risk Management
Working at sea carries risks, and we manage them methodically: safety protocols for scientific diving and monitoring trips, emergency plans, and training in first aid, emergency oxygen and water rescue for field teams, divers and fishers.
We offer it as a service
Education and Communication
Work with coastal communities and outreach. Conservation that is not explained does not hold: those who live from the sea must be able to decide about it with information.
We offer it as a service
Citizen Science
Anyone who sees something at sea can report it. A biologist on the team verifies every record before it enters the Observatory.
Get involved
Advocacy and Management
Bringing evidence to coastal management decisions and marine protected areas, and sustaining the partnerships needed for that evidence to be used.

The same capability, as a service
Environmental services
Each pillar's services are above, within its own section. If you prefer to see them all together, with deliverables, timelines and regulatory framework, they are on a single page. What comes in through there funds the open work.
