HEPCA trains local dive guides as part of the The USAID LIFE - Red Sea Sustainable Growth II Project

The USAID LIFE - Red Sea Sustainable Growth II Project is a U.S. Government-funded project implemented in coordination with HEPCA. The project seeks to raise the standard of living within the southern Red Sea, all the while promoting environmental conservation and awareness. Under the LIFE - Red Sea Sustainable Growth II Project, HEPCA will be carrying out Dive Operation Management and Conservation training Sessions during the months of May and June 2017. The training is designed to ensure the region's competitiveness on the world tourism market in an environmentally conscious manner.
