marinecultures.org is a small non-profit organization on the island of Zanzibar in the Indian Ocean with headquarters in Zurich, Switzerland. marinecultures.org is organized as an association and was founded in 2008. We are financed by membership fees, donations and project contributions.
Half of the world’s population lives along seashores. The coastal regions are overexploited and further weakened by climate change. Coral reefs are dying, the marine fauna is impoverished, and local communitiess are struggling to survive.
marinecultures.org initiates small-scale conservation projects: We support people on the coast of Zanzibar and Tanzania mainland in the development of ecological aquaculture. Together with local communities and our partners and the authorities we carry out activities to protect and restore marine ecosystems.
Our projects are developed in collaboration with experts. They are financed by donations and foundations. And on the coasts they secure a sustainable livelihood for a growing number of families.
