Eyes of the Reef Training Workshop

The Eyes of the Reef Network (EOR) is a statewide reporting system that enables all community members and ocean users to contribute to the long-term protection of our local reefs.

Pollution, climate change, poor land practices and increasing recreational and extractive activities create environmental conditions on coral reefs that foster coral disease and coral bleaching, support the spread of invasive species, and threaten reef health. Without initial sightings by the local “eyes” on our reefs, such occurrences may go unnoticed until it is too late.

Join the Eyes of the Reef Network by attending this community training workshop!

Eyes of the Reef Training Workshop
Wednesday, Dec. 7, 2022
2:00 – 4:00 p.m. Hawaii (4PM PT / 7PM ET)

Attend this 2-hour workshop to learn how to identify and report coral bleaching, coral disease, Crown-of-Thorns Sea Stars and marine invasive species. Whether you are a recreational ocean user, recreational or commercial fisherman, tourism operator, researcher or student, you can help us learn more about when and where these events occur by keeping an eye out for signs of change when visiting the reef.
