Grant Overview

The Virgin Islands face significant capacity gaps in marine education, with limited resources and infrastructure hindering the delivery of high-quality marine education programs. The marine education program aims to address these gaps by creating a comprehensive hands-on learning and citizen science initiative. Eligible applicants must demonstrate their capacity to develop and implement a marine education program that meets the territory's specific needs. Unlike neighboring Caribbean islands, the Virgin Islands' marine education efforts are shaped by its unique marine ecosystem and the importance of marine conservation to the local economy. The grant funding will support the development of marine educational resources and partnerships with local marine conservation organizations. The program will prioritize projects that demonstrate a deep understanding of the territory's capacity gaps and marine conservation needs.
