“The leatherback project conducts interdisciplinary research and conservation initiatives aimed at protecting leatherback sea turtles and other threatened marine species. Our work addresses key drivers of population decline, including fisheries bycatch and habitat degradation. We collaborate with scientists, policymakers, and coastal communities to promote evidence-based solutions such as marine protected area implementation and the recognition of natures legal rights. By using sea turtles as sentinel species, we investigate broader ecological changes and advocate for sustainable ocean stewardship grounded in science. Impact includes 86 square kilometers of protected area, 3 conservation projects launched, 25 sea turtles tagged in the pearl islands archipelago, 40 fishers trained in safe bycatch release techniques, 300 leatherback sea turtle nests monitored, 6,494 leatherback sea turtle hatchlings protected, and 118 nesting leatherback sea turtles id tagged.”
