On December 19, 2024, we had the immense pleasure of celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Te mana o te moana association at the prestigious Intercontinental Tahiti Resort & Spa. A remarkable venue for an equally exceptional event, marked by gratitude and a strong commitment to environmental stewardship.
Since its creation in 2004, Te mana o te moana has been passionately dedicated to the preservation of marine wildlife and the education of younger generations. Through hands-on fieldwork, innovative educational programs, and numerous initiatives in collaboration with local and international partners, our association has established itself as a key player in the protection of sea turtles in French Polynesia.
This 20th anniversary was a wonderful opportunity to reunite with our partners, donors, employees, volunteers, interns, and friends of the association in a festive and warm atmosphere. The evening was highlighted by:
We warmly thank everyone who attended, as well as those who have supported us from afar throughout all these years. Your commitment, generosity, and trust enable us to continue carrying out our missions with determination. Thanks also to our institutional partners, corporate sponsors, volunteers, and board members for their valuable contributions.
Building on these first 20 years, we look to the future with hope and ambition. Many projects are underway to strengthen our impact, expand our awareness efforts, and contribute even more to the preservation of French Polynesia’s marine ecosystems.
