The luxurious Maldivian resorts of Soneva Fushi & Soneva Jani launched ‘Soneva Academy’, introducing educational courses based on Soneva’s sustainability initiatives, created for 12-year-olds and up.

Soneva Academy introduced four courses:

• The Marine Life of the Maldives

This course dives beneath the waves to discover the coral reefs, the marine animals that call them home, the threats they face and what we can do to help. 

• The Night Sky in the Maldives

This course goes beyond our atmosphere to identify the different cosmic objects, what they are, and how they fit into the grand scheme of the universe.

• Adventure of The Corbin — a shipwreck —

This course is developed just for teenagers. Learn how to navigate on land and on the ocean. The Corbin is a ship that sank on the Goidhoo Atoll’s reef in 1602. Stay on the island of Innafushi to learn about the sea, its currents, tides, and the methods of navigation.

• Mosquitoes and Mosquito-borne Diseases

This course delves into the effects of mosquitoes on the world’s population, how it affects our lives, and what we can do to protect ourselves from the diseases they transmit.
