MPI (Marine Protected Areas)

Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are designated regions in oceans and seas where human activities are managed to conserve marine ecosystems and biodiversity. These areas restrict activities like fishing, drilling, and development to protect marine species, habitats, and overall health of the ocean. MPAs help sustain fish populations, maintain healthy ecosystems, and support livelihoods dependent on the ocean. They are an essential tool for marine conservation, balancing human use with environmental preservation to ensure the ocean remains vibrant and resilient for future generations.
