Who We Are
The Red Sea Nature Protection Society (RSNPS) is an Egyptian non-governmental organisation founded to safeguard the extraordinary biodiversity of the Red Sea coast and the Sinai Peninsula.
Operating at the intersection of two of the world's most remarkable ecosystems — the coral reefs of the northern Red Sea and the dramatic desert landscapes of Sinai — RSNPS bridges marine and terrestrial conservation through science, community, and advocacy.
