Coral Triangle Center

INSPIRING PEOPLE

SAVING OCEANS

We are a foundation based in Bali with a regional scope and global impact. We work closely with local communities, private sector, governments, and partners to strengthen marine resource management in the Coral Triangle to protect coral reef ecosystems, ensure sustainable livelihoods, and food security. CTC supports on-the-ground conservation in Nusa Penida in Bali, Banda Islands in Maluku, as well as Atauro Island and Liquica in Timor-Leste.

We are developing our Center for Marine Conservation in Bali to serve as an integrated learning space for training programs, outreach activities, and artistic and cultural performances to influence millions of people to care for our oceans and those that depend on it. We lead regional learning networks of women leaders, local government executives and marine protected area practitioners in Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands and Timor-Leste.

We are a certified training center of the Government of Indonesia and an official partner of the Coral Triangle Initiative on Coral Reefs, Fisheries and Food Security.

A Global Issue

What happens in the Coral Triangle is not only of local interest: this region is the engine of the world’s oceans, and therefore of global concern. Global issues, like climate change, overfishing and plastic pollution, need global solutions, and protecting the world’s coral reefs requires everyone to get involved. At CTC we want to empower everybody to discover, learn and contribute. You too can join our growing community of champions of the Coral Triangle by becoming a supporter of our work through the Friends of CTC program; visiting the CTC Center for Marine Conservation; joining our training programs; or visiting one of our field learning sites!
