Sustainable Ecosystems, Resilient Communities.

 

We are a small non-profit that employs a bottom-up approach to address issues of marine conservation, public health, and community development along Chile’s coast.

 

Our Mission

 

La Fuerza del Buzo seeks to secure fishing livelihoods and promote sustainable marine ecosystems through innovative community-based programs that address issues of public health, community development and marine conservation.

Our Bottom-Up Approach

We use a bottom-up approach where our programs are defined by the communities with whom we work. This collaborative process results in programs that allow us to deliver community-driven programs that serve small-scale fishing communities for present and future generations. With this approach, we can examine the interconnections between human health and a sustainable marine environment and create and deliver collaborative, community-driven programs that address the challenges to divers’ health, community development, and marine conservation.
