Mauritius has 18 MPAs and 2 Voluntary Marine Conservation Areas. The objectives of these protected areas range from protection and conservation of marine life to the enjoyment of the sea and its rich bounty of biodiversity, from provision of job and food security to providing living laboratories for science and research. Join the Nairobi Convention and WIOMSA at the launch of the Western Indian Ocean Marine Protected Area Outlook on Friday 16th July to learn more about MPAs in Mauritius.
