We're Rewriting
Reef HistoryBecause the reefs can't protect themselves
Our coral reef ecosystems are critically endangered by ocean pandemics and coral bleaching caused by climate change and the destructive impact of human activity – but it’s not too late to save them. While current efforts to reverse the damage are mostly financed through small-scale grants, they’re insufficient to address the scale of the decline. A new Bahamas Protected Areas Fund initiative, supported by The Nature Conservancy’s BahamaReefs Program, reimagines how we fund and foster reef resilience.
About The BahamaReefs Program
BahamaReefs is a long-term, impact-driven initiative to scale up coral reef restoration at key pilot sites, including Bimini, Old Bahama Bay Marina, Spanish Wells, Green Turtle Cay, and Chubb Cay. The program is led by The Nature Conservancy in collaboration with the Global Fund for Coral Reefs, the Bahamas Protected Areas Fund, and other strategic partners.
