    Description
    Description

    Our mission is to educate illiterate ocean linked marginalized communities in 4 of our Coastal Provinces namely, The Northern Cape, Western Cape, Eastern Cape and Kwa-Zulu Natal in South Africa. The abovementioned provinces are in the majority the poorest regions in our country with exception of the Western Cape, All these provinces are linked to the ocean for generations and the sad part is they are uneducated in terms of the ocean that feeds them. Enviro Impi and its sister organization, Kadesh International are committed to change this perspective and teach these communities via children's education the true value of looking after our ocean. It is an environmental literacy drive where young people will become the custodians of our oceans. 44
