Our mission is to collaborate with island agencies to teach children about their connection with nature and to empower them to be leaders in the protection and restoration of their local environment, particularly the coral reef.

Unlike environmental organizations that attempt to effect change from without, the Caribbean SEA works to make a difference from within. Our organization seeks business leaders from island nations who will sponsor local environmental projects. Caribbean SEA staff and volunteers then train local educators and students to design, implement, and monitor projects that conserve the local marine ecosystems. Through these efforts, the next generation of leaders will protect the environment which provides economic stability to the islands.

 Caribbean SEA has seen much success in our first three years.  Through collaboration with the electric utilities, resorts, and community groups, hundreds of students and teachers are more attuned to conservation of their local resources. Look through these pages to see students at work and how YOU can help us further our mission . . . to put students in charge of protecting their environment!
