Marine Conservation in Cambodia is an independent project that is devoted to protecting and conserving Cambodia's marine environment and the livelihoods of the communities that rely on its resources.
We strive for clean seas and beaches, sustainable fisheries, and the protection of the marine environment in the Kingdom of Cambodia. Founded in early 2008, Marine Conservation Cambodia commits itself to comprehensive protection of Cambodia's marine environment, as well as assisting the local communities in the sustainable use of marine resources. Our aim is to assist the relevant government departments and local community networks to make and maintain changes that will protect the marine environment and simultaneously improve the livelihoods of coastal communities.
* Plenty of scuba diving, a chance to see Cambodia's pristine islands before they become developed.
* The opportunity to live within a rural Island fishing community.
* No Experience necessary, all training given.
* But a back ground in ecology, conservation or community support is helpful
