We are thrilled to announce our collaboration with O.C.E.A.N (Organization for Coastal Ecology and Nature Conservation) for the launch of the Right to Nest (RTN) Campaign. This campaign is a vital initiative aimed at advocating for the safe passage of female sea turtles during the nesting season on the east and west coasts and island states of India, South Asia, and other at-risk turtle nesting beaches.
Right to Nest Campaign Overview:
The Right to Nest Campaign seeks to address the threats facing turtle nesting beaches, especially those from coastal development. These threats endanger not only the nesting sea turtles but also the diverse marine ecosystems they inhabit. The campaign aims to seek policy changes, raise awareness, and engage with relevant authorities to ensure the preservation of critical nesting habitats and the protection of marine biodiversity.
