Dive Desk & Maldivian Academy of Diving

Dive Desk supported Earthwatch Shulman Award recipient Farah Amjad in establishing a coral nursery on Thulusdhoo reef and training local volunteer divers using Reef Check methodology, empowering divers to protect and restore coral reefs.

Dive Desk founder Adam Ashraf recently led a Coral Reef Conservation awareness session at Malahini Kuda Bandos, highlighting the importance of protecting these vital ecosystems. With over 99% of the Maldives covered by ocean, coral reefs are essential for marine biodiversity — but face increasing threats from pollution, overfishing, and climate change.
