Exciting News for Marine Conservation in the Red Sea

Join us in welcoming three incredible PADI Course Directors: Waleed Abd el Moubdy, Ashraf R. Muminah, and Ehab M. Al-Jawi. They have officially joined us for the PADI Marine Turtle Conservation Specialty Instructor Trainer rating.

A heartfelt thank you goes out to them for their invaluable support in translating and revising the Instructor Manual and educational materials into Arabic. Thanks to their hard work, we can better serve the wider diving community across the Red Sea. The Arabic material set will be available to the public very soon.

We also want to celebrate and welcome another brilliant 34 PADI Instructors from all over Saudi Arabia who are stepping up for this initiative and are now fully certified to teach the RED SEA TURTLES PROJECT™ PADI Distinctive Specialty Course. We are looking forward to this fruitful collaboration, and their enthusiasm is highly rewarding to us.

A special thank you goes to Captain Waleed Abd el Moubdy and his teams at Dive Pro Jeddah and Shark Family for setting up the training and for their contribution to bringing us all together.

Two years in a row! We are incredibly honored to receive the PADI Pillars of Change Award for Outstanding Contribution to Ocean Conservation once again. This time as a direct tribute to the work of our PADI Eco Center in the Red Sea. This isn't just an award; it is a testament to the dedication of our team and the community that drives our mission forward.

This recognition is especially meaningful as it coincides with PADI’s 60th Anniversary. Receiving this honor while the global diving community is gathered together perfectly highlights the strength of our collective purpose. We want to extend our sincere gratitude to our colleagues at fellow PADI Dive Centers and the members who have supported us. Your camaraderie proves that we are truly stronger as one global family.

We owe a profound debt of gratitude to PADI and the PADI AWARE Foundation for their unwavering mentorship and belief in our vision. Most importantly, we thank our community of citizen scientists, students, and the team for fueling this journey. Together, we are setting a new standard for sustainable marine tourism. Not just as a goal, but as a blueprint to secure the long-term resilience and vitality of the Red Sea.

At the 44th International Sea Turtle Society (ISTS) Symposium in Hawaiʻi, it was an honor to have the RED SEA PROJECT™ work shown alongside hundreds of global initiatives. During the African Regional Meeting, we presented how local collaborations provide the "Ground Truth" for conservation issues unique to the Egyptian Red Sea.

Our scientific contributions were led by a presentation during the Population Biology Session: Projected Primary S*x Ratios, the Loss of Demographic Refuges, and Feminization in the Red Sea During the Past 124 Years.

Our research posters further highlighted the impact of citizen science, strong collaboration, and community empowerment. Research Poster 074 focused on injury and mortality patterns in the Egyptian Red Sea, while Poster 156 extended this approach to the Gulf of Aqaba, Jordan; meanwhile, Poster 093 investigated how "hitchhiker load" (epibionts) reduces host grazing efficiency.

A huge thank you to our partners and collaborators for their hard work on all fronts, and to the ISTS for hosting such a dynamic event.
