In conjunction with the Raja Ampat Research and Conservation Centre, Kayak4Conservation is a community development program, with the mission to support the local communities in the surrounding villages adjacent to Kri island. By employing local men as guides and working with eight locally-owned guesthouses, income is generated for these families in sustainable, eco-friendly ways as opposed to fishing, shark finning, bird poaching, or logging.
Involving local indigenous communities in both marine tourism and environmental initiatives is the key to sustainability and success.
