The Organization
The Olive Ridley
Project (ORP) is dedicated to removing and reducing the number of derelict
fishing nets in the Indian Ocean and to protecting vulnerable marine turtles
that fall victim to this ghost gear. We achieve this by training volunteers to
remove derelict fishing gear, safely rescue trapped animals, and record
important information about the gear and animals entangled in it. We attempt to
mitigate this problem by promoting the recycling and reuse of end-of-life
fishing equipment. Since 2013, our volunteers have recorded and disentangled
more than 300 sea turtles and removed over 500 ghost nets from the Indian
Ocean.
