Our Projects

We are proud to be working around the globe with inspiring partners and researchers who are committed to making a difference to their islands and island neighbours.

 

Our Shared Ocean is funding innovative projects and research initiatives from Jamaica to Haiti; Fiji to Cork and from Singapore to Belize.
