British King Charles III visited marine conservation sites at Nyali beach in Mombasa, southeastern Kenya recently (Thursday). The monarch officially sought to learn more about the work of local organizations such as the Kuruwitu Community Welfare Association, formed in 2003.
The Association aims at protecting the area from overfishing, climate change, and uncontrolled coral collection. The Association has developed a coral restoration project. The details of the project were explained to King Charles including the process of coral gardening, the production of artificial coral restoration structures, and coral ‘plugs.
He also saw the demonstration of how organizations are cleaning up the Indian Ocean to clean off plastic waste, which is recycled into products including desks. Marine conservation expert Neville Agesa was hopeful the monarch’s visit would be a boost to marine conservation efforts by the community and encourage local politicians to opt for real action.
