    Description
    Description
    Nusa Dua is an area in the southern part of Bali, Indonesia, known as an enclave of large 5-star resorts. It is located 22 kilometers from Denpasar, the provincial capital of Bali, and administered under South Kuta District. Nusa Dua, including other important areas coasts and seas of Tanjung Benoa, Ungasan, and Uluwatu, situated in the south of Bali are a part of Coral Triangle, is known as a highest diverse coastal and oceanic cetacean habitat (Kahn, 2005), rich with marine ecosystem, species diversity, as well as Balinese cultural heritage. The resources provide benefits for the local community through tourism, fisheries, and seaweed culture, and places for rituals of Balinese culture and religious.

    The marine ecosystems, especially coral reefs, in this region are under serious threats from pollution and sedimentation, coastal development, unfriendly marine tourism activities, and coral bleaching. Since 2009, Nusa Dua Reef Foundation, a non-profit organization based in Nusa Dua, Bali collaborated with local stakeholders initiated a coral reefs conservation in Nusa Dua and Tanjung Benoa, Badung Regency, Bali, Indonesia. The project including coral rehabilitation and a local marine managed area. A total of 216 artificial reefs structures have been placed and thousands of coral have been transplanted in underwater of Nusa Dua and Tanjung Benoa. However, rehabilitation of damaged reefs after coral bleaching and it's management through locally marine manage area is ever more needed. Funding for this project is huge and therefore we initiated a sustainable financing mechanism of "Inaya Marine Conservation Program" in 2016, a partnership among Nusa Dua Reef Foundation with Inaya Putri Bali, a five star hotel located in Nusa Dua, Bali and Pokmaswas Yasa Segara Bengiat (a community surveillance group) of Benoa District, Badung Regency, Bali.

    The Inaya Marine Conservation Program consists of an Adopt A Coral and Marine Sustainable Conservation Financing (drop box). The goals are to support coral & giant clam conservation, giving an opportunity for individuals, groups or corporates to be aware of the conservation and promoting awareness of coral reefs and giant clam conservation along with environmental and social benefits. The collected funds will be used for operational costs of Coral & giant clam garden, capacity building, including training, research, data collection, and monitoring, restocking coral & giant clam, and developing two locally marine manage area of Nusa Dua and Tanjung Benoa, Bali.
