Reef Check was founded in 1997 as a grass-roots, volunteer initiative to help local communities learn how to monitor the health of their coral reefs using a standard, scientifically rigorous method. Since then, Reef Check has expanded to included teams of volunteer scuba divers and snorkelers who are using Reef Check methods in over 60 countries and territories. In addition to providing crucial data to scientists and resource managers, our global teams educate the public about coral reef health and solutions to these problems. Most importantly, Reef Check provides the tools and training for local communities to manage and protect their coral reefs. For more information, visit www.reefcheck.org. |
