Operation Big Blue Association is a Lebanese environmental, non-governmental organization that seeks to protect, analyze, and monitor the coastal and marine environment against misuse or degradation and actively working on resolving the issues. Since inception in 1997, OBBA has developed a series of programs that improve the odds of environmental challenges through simple programs such as beach cleaning, delegate programs such as turtle well-being/fertilization monitoring, large-scale mindset programs such as ecological and environmental awareness campaigns, and sophisticated self-sustaining programs such as public beach management. | Acronym: OBBA
