The clock is ticking for Project AWARE’s Ocean Action Project applications

Project AWARE’s Ocean Action Project is in full swing. With just over a week left to submit applications, now is a great time to reflect on a couple of the winning projects from last year.
The Koh Tao Debris Master Plan, used the funding to kick off a rubbish reduction campaign including practical workshops and educational signage around the island. This is one project that has made an extraordinary difference and is continually moving forward to be part of the solution.
Another fantastic initiative that received support in 2012’s Ocean Action Project was the Semporna Shark Sanctuary (SSS) in Malaysia. The SSS has continued to work with the community to raise awareness about the importance of shark protection and is working towards the protection of about 8000km2 of reef, open ocean and vital mangrove areas.
Even the smallest ideas can lead to the most amazing results. If you have a results driven project that addresses root causes of marine debris or shark and ray protection issues then download the Ocean Action Project guidelines and submit your entry before the 31st of October.

Designed and engineered in Germany. Made in Europe.
The RF-40 open-heel fin delivers. Its harder blade will especially delight sporty divers.
The powerful blade of the RF-40 fin and its dynamic design with innovative water channels allow to perform both technical and recreational kicks with maximum propulsion. The power is efficiently transmitted from the foot pocket and sole to the blade for outstanding kick stability and manoeuvrability.

The foot pocket of the open-heel fin is comfortable, and the smart bungee strap enables to make small length adjustments without using any tools. This way, the fin can be used with neoprene boots or with a drysuit. The heel pad has a large finger loop that is easy to grasp even when wearing gloves, making donning and doffing the fin a breeze.
