‘Restore Rasfari’ is a reef restoration project developed by EPA following damages caused by a ship grounding incident at Rasfari. Under this partnership, Dhiraagu will be providing long-term support to the restoration teams of EPA for the project. Additionally, the company has also contributed diving kits to the teams to assist in their restoration work.

The restoration of the Rasfari Reef holds significant importance due to its role in conserving a diverse range of marine species. This initiative reflects a broader commitment to preserving the marine ecosystem, which is essential for the environmental health of the region.

Ibrahim Naeem, the Director General of EPA, emphasised the importance of stakeholder involvement in the success of such environmental projects. He acknowledged Dhiraagu’s efforts in protecting Rasfari Island and expressed optimism about the partnership.

Echoing similar sentiments, Mohamed Mirshan Hassan, Dhiraagu’s Director of Brand and Marketing Communications, highlighted the company’s dedication to environmental conservation. He stated that this partnership aligns with Dhiraagu’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programme, which focuses on caring for the oceans and preserving the environment.

The ‘Restore Rasfari’ project marks a significant step towards environmental conservation, with the collaborative efforts of both Dhiraagu and the EPA setting a precedent for future initiatives aimed at protecting and preserving natural habitats.
