Joining Forces for Marine Conservation

The Khaled bin Sultan Living Oceans Foundation and the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation pledge to work together to protect the ocean and its biodiversity.

The Khaled bin Sultan Living Oceans Foundation and the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation have reached a momentous agreement to work together to safeguard our oceans. Recognizing their mutual interest in protecting ocean health for current and future generations, the two foundations formalized their partnership by signing a memorandum of understanding (MoU) at the Third Foundations Dialogue meeting in Monaco. The signing ceremony was graced by the presence of His Serene Highness Prince Albert II of Monaco and Her Royal Highness Princess Hala bint Khaled bin Sultan.

Organized by the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of UNESCO, the Foundations Dialogue Group provides a platform for the philanthropic community to collaborate and work together to move the needle towards ocean conservation. The Third Foundations Dialogue Meeting is being hosted by the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation at the Monte Carlo Bay Hotel & Resort from June 14-16. It provides a unique opportunity for foundations to collaborate and see how they could align their efforts to achieve the bold ambitions of the United Nations Ocean Decade for Sustainable Development, known as the “Ocean Decade.”

The Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation, established by HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco, has long been at the forefront of environmental preservation. Their tireless efforts span a wide range of fields, including climate change, renewable energies, biodiversity, and water conservation. By raising awareness of the impact of human activities on the natural environment, fostering eco-friendly practices, and supporting exceptional initiatives and innovative solutions, the Foundation aims to create a lasting impact in key areas such as the Mediterranean Basin, the Polar Regions, and in Least Developed Countries.

The Khaled bin Sultan Living Oceans Foundation, founded by Princess Hala’s father, HRH Khaled bin Sultan Al-Saud, stands as a beacon of hope for our oceans. For over two decades, the Living Oceans Foundation has dedicated itself to the protection, conservation, and restoration of marine ecosystems, with a focus on conserving coral reefs and other vulnerable tropical marine ecosystems. Through their combined approach of scientific research, outreach, and education, the Living Oceans Foundation has become a global leader in marine conservation, empowering communities, advancing ocean science, and improving ocean literacy around the world.

The MoU signed today between the Living Oceans Foundation and the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation recognizes the complementary nature of their expertise and the immense potential for collaborating to make a lasting difference in ocean conservation. By joining forces, both organizations aim to amplify their conservation efforts, exchange knowledge, and embark on joint projects that align with their shared objectives and geographical priorities.

Alexandra Dempsey, CEO of the Khaled bin Sultan Living Oceans Foundation, expressed her excitement about the signed partnership, stating, “With the signing of this MOU, we are embarking on a new era of collaboration, innovation, and collective action. Together with the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation, we will amplify our efforts to protect and restore our invaluable marine ecosystems, ensuring their sustainability for generations to come.”

Olivier Wenden, Vice-President and CEO of the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation, emphasized the significance of the partnership, saying, “This alliance highlights the importance of collaboration. By joining forces with the Khaled bin Sultan Living Oceans Foundation, we have strengthened our capacity to tackle the urgent challenges facing the world’s ocean  and favour meaningful change together.

As the partnership between the Living Oceans Foundation and the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation comes into effect and the real work is set to begin, both organizations are eager to leverage their shared commitment, expertise, and global reach to help build a future where our oceans thrive.

Is This The Best Dive Center Ever? W\@wakatobidiveresort

@sennacher 
#askmark Hi there, regarding DSMBs. I’m no expert whatsoever and normally I deploy it correctly. This weekend we dove on very strong current and I almost lose my breath while deploying it (mouth inflate) as it tangled a bit on my reg. It scared the sh&t out of me so. Is there any “little cylinder” kind of thing in order to keep my reg in my mouth to deploy it safer?  I haven’t tried to do it with my LPI… but asume it would tangle also.
Thanks

Is There an Easier Way to Deploy a dSMB?

How Twinset Valves Work In Scuba Diving | Shutdown Drills And Isolator Tips Explained #scubadiving #askmark #twinset

Confused about how to use twinset valves or perform a proper valve shutdown drill? You’re not alone.

In this AskMark episode, Mark explains how valves work on twin cylinders, including how to safely open and close them, how isolator valves function, and why valve drills (also known as shutdown drills or V-Drills) are critical for diagnosing leaks during technical and recreational dives. Please visit our website for more Scuba news, underwater photography, hints & advice, and travel reports: https://divernet.com/ 

Mark also shares tips on muscle memory for reaching your left and right posts, isolator-first vs isolator-last logic, and how to prevent over-tightening or unsafe valve positioning. This guide is perfect for divers transitioning to twinsets, sidemount divers curious about manifold setups, or anyone wanting to improve their gas management skills. 

Let us know in the comments how your instructor taught valve drills and don’t forget to leave your questions using #AskMark to get featured in a future video.

How Do Valves Work on Twin Cylinders? #askmark
@mostafametwally1
#askmark hi Mark. Could you do a video on how to deal with the valves and manifold on twin cylinders. It’s confusing to remember which way to open the valves and it’s easy to get wrong particularly in emergencies. Thanks
