It is with regret that a few days ago, we were informed that our agreement and future projects, with the Red Sea University's are canceled.
The renewed political turmoil in the country, since last October 2021, left the Red Sea University virtually without management, and most of it's colleges were closed. More recently the current governmental administration had decided to replace all key positions in universities around the country, also the Red Sea University did not escape.

Dear Friends, colleagues, partners and loyal supporters

It is with great pleasure I announce the turning of an important page in our story.

Some of you know that #OPREDSEA is actually the embodiment, or rather physical result of work I started in 2006, while working in a tent on the shorelines of Sudan. During which time I devised both the IADP -DIVE PROFESIONALS organization, and it’s subordinate GOBLU3 (Marine Ecology) concept.

Joint Press Release:

The IADP – DIVE PROFESSIONALS (International Association of Dive Professionals | Non-Profit in Formation (EU)), Dedicated to developing support programs for professional divers worldwide. Together with its local representative OCEANROAMERS - TheOceanRoamer, are spearheading marine conservation & educational projects, in Sudan’s Red Sea.

On Thursday the 17th of February, TheOceanRoamer NAUI CD #18635 finished the last part of his NAUI Course Director requalification.

The NAUI requalification seminar was entirely run online, with an e-learning portion and subsequently an online seminar.

Thanks to the kind support of his ex colleagues at NAUI Nederland, under the leadership of NAUI Area Representative JW. van Gelder.

On Saturday 12th of February 2022, the IADP (International Association of Dive Professionals) convened an extraordinary assembly. Present during the assembly were a majority of the volunteers, board members, and management team. During the assembly, the founding board of directors were sworn in. Thereafter the updated Articles of Association of the International Association of Dive Professionals, were reviewed by the board members, ultimately ratified and signed by the Association's Secretary Mr. D. Coilin, in Brussels.

THEOCEANROAMER - OCEANROAMERS announce the soft launch of THEOC3ANCLUB portal benefiting Sudan's water sports enthusiasts, both in the capital and in the Red Sea State. The watersports club's mission is to help locals to DISCOVER, LEARN about, and PROTECT the Red Sea's natural resources. Bringing quality education to a wider audience, which had previously been unable to participate in Ocean sports, due to a lack in both training and quality equipment; notwithstanding the high cost these activities normally entail.
