Dear Colleague,
We are pleased to announce the companion website to Treasures in the
Sea: Our Bahamian Marine Resources, a new resource book that provides
educators with scientific information and engaging, hands-on activities
that encourage students to discover, cherish, and protect the sea and
all of its treasures.
Visit the website to download the book or sections of the book, link to
resources related to the activities, find out about training workshops
in The Bahamas, and share teaching ideas and experiences in marine
conservation education.

Treasures in the Sea grew out of the Bahamas Biocomplexity Project, an
interdisciplinary study to improve understanding of the potential for
marine protected area networks to support biodiversity conservation and
fisheries sustainability, as well as recreational and other uses. It was
developed through a partnership of the American Museum of Natural
History’s Center for Biodiversity and Conservation, the Bahamas National
Trust, and the Bahamas Ministry of Education, Youth, Sports and Culture,
with support from numerous collaborators.
