Our ocean is part of our history, our culture, our livelihood, and our economy. We are two young Mauritians who have witnessed the degradation of our lagoons over the years. We all want our healthy ocean back, with plentiful fish and colorful reefs. Solutions exist but alone we are only a small fish in a vast ocean; it is as a community that we will succeed. Together, let’s Vey nou Lagon.
