More alternative livelihoods for the communities in Sabah

On our latest collaboration with Seadling, we have been invited to organize a capacity building programme for the local communities in Kg. Baru-baru, Tuaran to teach them about the marine ecosystems which includes marine resources that can be found in their area, its importance and the threats its facing and how we can conserve it.

We hope to engage with them in future workshops to continue equipping them with knowledge and understanding towards our marine ecosystems and current environmental issues.

Seadling is developing an alternative livelihood programme for the local fishermen to transition from offshore fishing to sustainable seaweed farming.
