⁠”I’ve spent my life studying the world’s oceans, but the Red Sea has a way of captivating even the most experienced ecologist. CURA is my way of bringing people together — scientists, advocates, communities — to protect a region that still holds so many secrets. It’s not just about conservation; it’s about care, curiosity, and collective responsibility.”

Dr. Chris Clarke, Executive Director
