Kuhusu sisi
Wasimamizi wa bahari wanaojenga teknolojia ya vitendo.
Reef Support ina makao yake Uholanzi na hufanya kazi na wahandisi, wanasayansi, na washirika wa uhifadhi wanaozingatia miamba ya matumbawe, majani ya baharini, na mikoko. Tunaunganisha data ya uwandani na zana za kidijitali na programu za jamii ili kusaidia kazi ya ufuatiliaji na kurudisha.
Dhamira yetu
Chukua hatua za vitendo kwa uhifadhi wa baharini kwa kuchanganya data ya uwandani, zana za kisasa, na ufuatiliaji unaoongozwa na jamii.
Tunachoamini
Miamba ya matumbawe yenye afya, majani ya baharini, na mikoko hulinda uchumi wa pwani na bayoanuwai. Tunabuni mifumo ya ufuatiliaji inayowasaidia washirika kutoka data ya uwandani hadi ushahidi wa pamoja na mtiririko wa uripoti.
Ushirikiano wazi
Tunajenga pamoja na NGO, vyuo vikuu, na timu za uwandani za eneo husika.
Zana tayari kwa uwandani
Fanya kazi nje ya mtandao na katika mazingira ya mbali inapohitajika.
Usimamizi wa pamoja
Sayansi shirikishi yenye maelezo ya wazi ya QA na asili ya data.
