Reef Environmental Education Foundation (REEF) is an international marine conservation organization that implements hands-on programs to involve local communities in conservation-focused activities. REEF was founded in 1990 and is based in Key Largo, Florida, with additional staff in Illinois, California, Washington, Colorado, New Jersey, and North Carolina. Its mission is to protect biodiversity and ocean life by actively engaging and inspiring the public through citizen science, education, and partnerships with the scientific community.

REEF's work focuses on four main projects: the Volunteer Fish Survey Project, the Grouper Moon Project, the Invasive Species Program, and the Ocean Explorers Education Program. Visit the program pages in the menu above for more information on each.

Project Manaia

Topics include: Alien or Invasive Species; Marine Pollution (inc plastics, litter); Seagrass

Country/Region: Mediterranean

Project Manaia was founded by Manuel Marinelli in 2014. We are a small but growing Ocean Conservation NGO (Nonprofit Organization) based in Austria that works at Sea. We are crossing the Mediterranean on a mission to preserve Seagrass, investigate invasive species, and clear out marine debris.

After a couple of successful years in the Mergui Archipelago, Myanmar we shifted our focus back to the Mediterranean Sea. We sourced a 43-foot sailboat in 2018 for research in the Mediterranean Sea and in 2023 we upgraded to a 21m sailboat. Lots of marine biologists have great ideas and simply lack the chance to turn in into reality.

The idea is that people with a project on hand, but no funding or not enough funding can join us onboard SY Waya Waya to run their projects from there. We supply the home, equipment and resources and they can do what they trained to do: Science. Right now, we are still working hard to provide an affordable research platform for researchers but we need more supporters to fund our current projects plus independent researchers.
