2020 a difficult year for the volunteering industry.
It’s been a difficult year for many people around the world, it has been difficult for us too, our GVI projects in Puerto Morelos both Marine Conservation and Community Development were placed on an hibernation period, during these difficult times, from March to December 2020, GVI field staff has continue supporting to our local partners as much as possible considering the circumstances.
We kept our support to local partners and community members.
We keep supporting our partners and the community by funding the Internet service for the camera system at the base in Puerto Morelos, holding meetings with partners, participating in under water and beach cleanups, keeping our legal and fiscal responsibilities in country, taking part in GVI online courses, joining local events to keep presence, getting trained and training others, helping with the maintenance of base facilities and discussing ideas and plans to reopen.
During more than 15 Years, the Marine Conservation projects have helped many local and international organizations in Mexico, to preserve, restore and to knowledge part of the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef, the second largest in the world. During over 7 years, the Community Development projects have sustained non-stop support to local partners that provide education and safe environments for children and community alike.
