Strategy

 

Sea Turtle Conservation Bonaire’s mission is to ensure the protection and recovery of Bonaire’s sea turtle populations throughout their range.

 

Sea Turtle Conservation Bonaire (STCB) aims to achieve its mission by:

  • Building a strong case for sea turtle conservation through applied research;
  • Implementing proactive management and conservation actions to protect Bonaire's sea turtles and their environments;
  • Communicating effectively through education, training and advocacy to enhance awareness of sea turtle conservation issues;
  • Developing strategic partnerships and networks to protect Bonaire's turtles locally and throughout their migratory ranges

 

Effective outreach builds long-term support for sea turtle conservation.

Here two young fishermen, Marvellous and Arkion, are congratulated by STCB manager Mabel for their quick-thinking rescue of a sea turtle snared in drifting nets and line.
