BOP in Schools

Our primary aim is to Educate, Raise awareness and ultimately help protect marine environments and its wildlife, both being essential to the well being of us all.

In the UK, we work in schools to deliver extra curricular lessons and workshops to increase understanding of the marine world . We aim to inspire and engage young people within our society about our precious oceans and our reliance upon them.

Coral Triangle Project

In the Philippines, in partnership with local groups, we aim to start projects that will in the long-term help protect fragile coral reef ecosystems and Whalesharks within the Coral Triangle. To achieve this, we will approach the problems of destructive fishing practices, pollution (marine debris), overfishing and finning trade at every level.

The Coral Triangle project will be running coral reef conservation education and awareness programmes.

Global Network of Ocean Protectors

Enrol your school or your class by writing your proposed action in your blog. This will be highlighted on the interactive map to join with other schools, creating a global network of ideas.

A facility to find out more of what is happening in other places and read about various amazing marine species at home and in other parts of the world.

Help to turn the tide on beach litter

An autopsy on a small Minke whale washed up on the Normandy coast revealed that its stomach contained an incredible 800g of plastic bags and packaging, including two British supermarket plastic bags. In the UK, each person throws away over 300 plastic bags yearly, with each bag being used only for 12 minutes.

Volunteer to organize a group and devote some of your time for local reef clean up, pond clean up and neighborhood clean up.
