OceansWatch assists communities when they ask for our help, this is usually as a result of their observation that they are catching fewer and smaller fish.  Our main focus is assisting them manage their marine resources so they have fish for future generations but they also ask for help in other areas. 

We will also assist them with:

• Ensuring a clean water supply
• Supporting existing craft projects
• Ensuring Primary education is available to all
• Sustainable land management

The map shows the communities we work with in Vanuatu, the Solomon Islands and Papua New Guinea.

Moana Arts

We buy craft from the artists at their sale price and then onsell it in other countries and send 100% profit back to the artists.

Education

Education is the key to raising living standards. Most schools in developing countries are very under-resourced. Supplies that we provide include paper, exercise books, pencils, chalk, paint and coloured pencils.

Health

Reading glasses can be very useful to older islanders to allow them to carry on their craft work, reading etc. Please help us to collect reading glasses. Please ONLY collect reading glasses and send them to OceansWatch, PO Box 1803, Whangarei, 0140, New Zealand.
