At Dive Desk, we value every opportunity to inspire divers to act for ocean health. A big thank you to State Trading Organization for the opportunity to teach Project AWARE Specialty course to the staff who recently completed PADI Open Water Diver course with us.

About Project AWARE
Project AWARE® is a nonprofit organization that PADI has partnered with for more than 25 years to mobilize divers across the globe to protect underwater environments. Focusing on the critical issues of marine debris and shark and ray protection, Project AWARE empowers thousands of divers in more than 182 countries to work together for a clean, healthy and abundant ocean planet.

From monitoring and protecting dive sites to achieving conservation wins for vulnerable species, the movement for a clean and healthy ocean has achieved positive change, locally first, contributing to a global outcome. Every action counts, and changing one person's behavior affects the collective outcome. We hope today's specialty course motivated divers to take individual responsibility to make sustainable life choices, and will share the knowledge with family and friends for positive change, and a collective effort for better impact. Dive Desk stands committed to support marine conservation initiatives to the best of our ability.
