Nonprofit Overview
Causes: International, International Relief
Mission: Maralliance enables, inspires, and implements positive change for threatened marine wildlife, their critical habitats, and dependent human communities.
Programs: Maralliance began conducting scientific research on marine megafauna with a focus on highly migratory and threatened species. The organization has begun long-term monitoring of populations in relation to their habitats, as well as assessing the effectiveness of conservation measures, notably the use of marine protected areas (mpas) in the long-term management and conservation of marine megafauna. Outreach programs have been initiated to promote the inclusion of marine megafauna in management plans, conservation actions, and sustainable non-consumptive uses, such as wildlife encounter tourism. These outreach programs target 1) research and conservation partners, including mpa managers and decision-makers, 2) fishers and tourism guides, 3) students, and 4) the general public.
