Stewardship - Save The Waves App
We engage and aid communities in the ongoing effective management of surf ecosystems. Stewardship allows us to safeguard the conservation gains made through our protected areas program. Both the Stewardship Platform and the Save The Waves App empower the global surfing community to monitor the health of their surf ecosystems by using technology tools to identify threats and participate in the mitigation of those threats.
