🙌 Special thanks to the team on the ground!!! We’re getting super close to reaching 10,000 kg of #ALDFG (abandoned, lost or discarded fishing gear) being collected from the islands of #Lampi and #Langann.
🦈 These waters are home to Critically Endangered sharks and rays of #Myanmar.

Wish us luck!! 💪🏽

6 trips and nearly 7 tonnes of ghost gear gone. 🐟💪
With Langann Island community, we’ve made our biggest ALDFG removal yet—keeping harmful nets out of reefs, turtles & mobula rays in Langann LMMA. 🌊💙

Earlier this July, I joined the 2025 Asia Shark Research & Conservation Leadership Workshop in Palawan 🇵🇭, a powerful week of learning, connecting, and growing.

Huge thanks to Blue Capacity Collective and everyone who made it possible! 🦈🌊 #ASRA #MyanmarOcean

We didn’t hit 500 filters, but we brought clean water, peace of mind, and better health to hundreds of families.

This was a collective effort and proof that compassion travels far.
Thank you for standing with us. 🙏

💧 Final update!
Thanks to your incredible support, we raised $17,820 and delivered 369 water filters to earthquake-affected communities in Myanmar.
Your donations, logistics help, and CSO-led trainings made this possible. We are so grateful. 💙

🌊 Last week Myanmar Ocean Project celebrated #WorldOceansDay with Goethe-Institut Myanmar, showcasing art and writing by youth across Myanmar. Thank you to all the amazing young creatives and volunteers who made it special! 💛 #MyanmarOcean #SustainingWhatSustainUs

A pre-monsoon update from the sea from our team in #MyeikArchipelago. We're very grateful to be able to continue working with the fishing communities in such challenging times in #Myanmar.
If you're still looking to support our fundraising efforts, please see the earlier posts.

We’re over the half way mark to our goal of providing #cleandrinkingwater to 500 households! Please continue to share and donate to support the earthquake stricken communities in Myanmar rebuild!

A little update from the ground for the water filter donations! Your support is providing safe drinking water to families rebuilding their lives. THANK YOU VERY MUCH! Please continue to share & donate to help us reach our goal!
#MyanmarEarthquake

We’ve continued to remove #ALDFG, sent our comic books to schools and libraries across #Myanmar including IDP camps. And this year, we also contributed to shark and ray research in 🇲🇲 in many ways!

Here’s to a busy 2024! Thank you very much 🙏🏾 to everyone who’s worked with us and supported our work, particularly the fishing communities whose collaboration is vital to our projects.

Very happy to have been part of this study. 🇲🇲 gets overlooked for a lot of things at the detriment of communities & environment in 🇲🇲 but also outside (as the paper highlighted 🇲🇲’s role not only in consumption & trade of mobulid products but also a key trade route for other countries in the region).
