Review Description

To effect environmental change through education that impowers all.

Our goal is effective protection and conservation of the habitats and species within the Conflict Island Atoll through sustainable ecological and economic management. This can be achieved from a concerted and passionate effort from all our affiliates and partners.

CICI provides the financial ability to employ local staff which will directly benefit their families and villages within the Milne Bay province. This partnership with local communities establishes good relationships between CICI and the islanders who work with us towards our common conservation goals of environmental sustanability.

Our goal is effective protection and conservation of the habitats and species within the Conflict Island Atoll through sustainable ecological and economic management. This can be achieved from a concerted and passionate effort from all our affiliates and partners.

CICI plans to become a world-renowned conservation organisation by establishing itself as a non-profit Organisation and creating a partnership with The Coral Islands Ltd (TCI). TCI produces the tools, facilities and infrastructure, including the liveaboard vessel Undersea Explorer, facilities already developed on Panasesa island, and the qualified staff already employed at CICI.

The guys on the boat were so happy and welcoming (shoutout to manu and Mose). The walking was fine for me every night because I pretty much ...

Volunteering at the conflicts was a great experience. Basically during my volunteer, we did a lot of island patrols especially at night.
