ADICOR (The Asociación de Desarrollo Integral de Corozalito)

The Asociacion de Desarrollo Integral de Corozalito (ADICOR), is sanctioned by the government of Costa Rica to support sustainable development in the community of Corozalito. The organization aims to provide essential services, enhance economic opportunity, and promote conservation on nearby Corozalito Beach, which is recognized for its thriving and magical nesting grounds populated by Olive Ridley sea turtles.

The Riester Foundation proudly supports ADICOR in its critical environmental efforts that include bi-monthly beach cleanups, eco-friendly communication through social media, patrolling the beach, and protection of turtle eggs from poaching and predation. They also work to ensure responsible tourism that does not interfere with or endanger the sea turtles or their nests in the sand.
