General Info

Established in 1969 as a non-profit conservation organization, the Oceanic Society's primary mission is protect endangered wildlife and preserve threatened marine habitats worldwide.

The Society works to establish protected natural areas, supported and sustained through scientific research, in cooperation with local communities.

The Society?s conservation approach is to foster alternative livelihoods for the benefit of local communities bordering marine protected areas through the development of eco-friendly economies as an alternative to those that are destructive to wildlife and natural habitats. Our wildlife conservation projects enjoy community support because we work locally from the outset. We have found this approach consistently leads to effective environmental conservation.
