About Under the Wave Organisation
Under the Wave is a small NGO collective founded in 2022 to protect Zanzibar’s marine environment. The team runs a sea turtle hatchery (over 2,000 hatchlings released since 2021), uses photo ID to track sea turtles, and provides environmental education directly to locals.
Responsibilities & Ideal Background
Learning opportunities include writing monitoring protocols, fish identification, and dolphin behaviour monitoring, alongside seeing how a small NGO operates.
A good fit is someone in Marine Science or with a marine-related research background; those with social-media marketing skills can also contribute.
