Coral Reef and Rainforest Conservation Project

Coral Reef and Rainforest Conservation Project (CRCP) is a Philippines-registered non-stock, non-profit organization dedicated to protecting key ecosystems hosting rich and threatened biodiversity. Working across coral reefs, rainforests, and mangroves, CRCP focuses its advocacy through research, experiential education, capacity-building, and sustainable community projects in one of the world's 17 mega-biodiverse countries.

The Philippines hosts more coastal reefs than anywhere else on Earth alongside remarkably rich terrestrial biodiversity, positioning the archipelago at the frontline of conservation for these fragile, interconnected ecosystems. CRCP addresses this responsibility by educating communities on the value of nature, empowering individuals with practical conservation skills, conducting research to guide protection efforts, and nurturing the relationship between people and planet.

Guided by core values prioritizing wildlife protection above all objectives, honest communication, and genuine partnership with communities most affected by biodiversity loss, CRCP works to spark passion for conservation while cultivating a new generation equipped with the knowledge and mindful practices needed to sustain healthy ecosystems.

Through marine protected area monitoring, mangrove and rainforest restoration, and efforts to fight plastic pollution, CRCP shows that environmental protection and community empowerment advance together, and that participation is open to all who wish to get involved.
