What We Do
Project AWARE takes action to create both local and global change for the ocean and the communities who depend on it.
Our Mission
Project AWARE connects the passion for ocean adventure with the purpose of marine conservation
Our Vision
A Return to a Clean, Healthy ocean
Our Conservation Blueprint
There are two critical focus areas for Project AWARE: Community and Policy. When both are working together, we are driving towards our mission and vision. Below is a visual representation of our organization’s blueprint.
Our Current Focus Areas
Project AWARE develops actions under our Clean Ocean and Healthy Ocean programs each year. In 2019, we will be supporting our community and advancing policies on Plastic Debris and Sharks & Rays.

Our Impact
For over 25 years, together with our partners and global community, we responded to the threats our ocean faces and we’ve had some incredible successes:
Our Priorities
We are committed to advancing programs that:
- Address the greatest threats facing the ocean. Those threats must be grounded in sound science
- Fulfill the interests and needs of our community with both fins on and fins off
- Link community action to policy change
- Support the implementation of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
