We are currently working on arranging a trip to the Bonaire Isles (prev. the Netherlands Antilles), but there are still some reservations regarding the destination, since the project and the interaction with a local school comes before the destination.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The trip<\/h2>\n
\n

In 1998 it was stated that up to 97% of the surrounding coral reefs on some island groups were bleached and destroyed (because of El Ni\u00f1o), which effected the marine life heavily and thereby also the part of the population that relied on fishing. After intense restoration work with coral cultivation in so-called \"nurseries\", fragmentation and later release into the wild, the coral coverage was increased from 2-3% in 2012 to 16% in 2014 and even more coverage in the following years - our effort helps.<\/p>\n

In addition, we will dive, snorkel, participate in coral farming, possibly school visits, fishing, agricultural visits and cooperation.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The Lessons<\/h2>\n
\n

We are going to study bleached and damaged coral reefs first-hand, fragment corals and help with the restoration of coral reefs. We will experience the role the coral reefs play biologically as well as societal for the inhabitants of the Bonaire Isles, experience how they live and eat and what actions and precautions they take to secure sustainable production and consumption on the islands.<\/p>\n
