One of the key issues in environmental and resource management in Raja Ampat, is the lack of readily available and credible information with respect to management authority, rules and regulations, zoning, entry permits and tourism information.
The absence of an official platform by which to share this information, and any other key announcements, results directly in confusion, lack of knowledge, understanding, and difficulty complying with existing laws and regulations designed to protect and best manage the sensitive marine environment. Put simply, if you can’t find the rules.. how can you possible follow them?
Together with The Raja Ampat Marine Park Authority and a collaborating NGO, The SEA People Foundation was engaged to develop and publish the official website of Raja Ampat Marine Park. This dual language, custom built website is designed to provide information to a large number of stakeholders to assist with governance and compliance. Beyond just ‘a website’, it was the first of its kind for a Marine Park or National Park in Indonesia, compiling and clearly listing and stating all relevant legislation in an easy to access and understand format.
www.rajaampatmarine.park (English) and www.kkprajaampat.com (Bahasa Indonesia) outlines clearly, amongst other things:
- MPA locations and descriptions
Zoning Regulation, including easy to understand tables outlining activities permitted/forbidden in each MPAs and the Zones within - A clear list of rules and regulations within MPAs
- Entry requirements for tourism and all vessels types
- General information regarding local communities and culture
stronger communities, protected ecosystems
Community Engagement and Support
This website formed the basis of a number of future communications designed to increase stakeholder awareness, support compliance and ultimately help provide better protection for the Marine Park.
These websites were handed over to the Marine Park Authority and their partners in 2023, who will continue collaboratively manage update the websites to disseminate important information about Raja Ampat’s Marine Protected Areas.

If left unchecked, 90% of coral reefs will be threatened by 2030, with almost all reefs facing, high, very high, or critical threat levels by 2050.
If we don’t act now, future generations will not have the privilege of seeing a live coral reef, let alone receive the benefits that coral reefs provide, including food, coastal protection, livelihoods and medicine.
In Raja Ampat, Indonesia, the most biodiverse coral reefs on Earth are under threat; rapid and unsustainable development combined with climate change threaten the future of these reefs, along with the food security, heritage and livelihoods of many.
Your contribution today has a direct impact in enabling our team to work with local people to Restore, Protect and Conserve reefs in the world’s last remaining coral stronghold.
We cannot do it alone, but with your contribution we can do it together.
