Marine Ecology Program Internship
ReportLocation: Nusa Penida, Indonesia
Eco Hero conservation is a marine research and conservation program based in Nusa Penida, Bali Indonesia, that trains and educates divers in the conservation of marine megafauna. We are always looking for marine enthusiasts to join our research diver training program and research team. This Conservation Program builds on the experience and expertise of volunteers from around the world.Coral reefs are essential to human life and marine life. They provide habitat for a wide variety of fish and other marine life, and protect coasts from abrasion and storms. However, coral reefs are currently suffering severe damage due to human activities such as irresponsible fishing, chemical use, and climate change. Therefore, conserving coral reefs is very important to maintain the survival of humans and marine life. To conserve coral reefs, it is important to keep rivers and coastlines clean of trash, prevent erosion, catch fish without damaging corals, not taking corals and reefs, involve the community in coral reef conservation efforts, improve human capacity to manage coral reef ecosystems, and rehabilitate damaged coral reefs.
We believe the true conservation lies in the ideology of letting the Nature does it work with very limited human interference. In practical, there is too much human activities that disrupt the natural flow of things such as plastic problems in the sea, overfishing, and ocean bombing.
Since we are doing ocean work, it is high time to combine the ocean activities with the ecologic education. Henceforth we offer divemaster internship with Marine ecology specialties included.
