The Turtle Conservation Project (TCP)
Five of the seven marine turtle species still nest on Sri Lanka’s beaches. With support from MCS the Turtle Conservation Project (TCP) has taken the message of turtle conservation into schools along the south and west coast of this Indian Ocean Island. The TCP is ensuring that the next generation of Sri Lankans fully appreciate the value of their marine heritage. The TCP promotes local responsibility by nurturing a culture of conservation awareness among the younger generation. (TCF funded from 2002 to 2003)
