Ambergris Caye’s proximity to the Caribbean Sea and the world’s second-largest barrier reef offers a remarkable opportunity to establish a Marine Research Center. This center is envisioned as a leading facility dedicated to advancing marine science through international collaborations, the training of local experts, and the development of innovative technologies. Its focus will be on addressing critical environmental challenges, including the widespread seagrass issues that affect Latin America.
HL is committed to positioning this Marine Research Center as a hub for cutting-edge marine research and solutions. By bringing together global expertise and local knowledge, the center will work on pioneering initiatives that contribute to the preservation and restoration of marine ecosystems. The center’s research will not only enhance understanding of marine life but also provide practical solutions to environmental problems, making a significant impact on the region and beyond.
The establishment of the Marine Research Center on Ambergris Caye represents a key step toward fostering a strong, sustainable approach to marine conservation. The center will serve as a platform for innovation, education, and collaboration, ensuring that the rich marine environments surrounding the island are studied, understood, and protected for future generations. HL’s vision is to create a facility that not only contributes to scientific discovery but also strengthens the island’s role in global marine conservation efforts.
