This is a partnership between two institutions based on a common denominator—the ocean.
It is the close involvement between the two organizations that makes it possible to turn mutual benefits into a global advantage.
These benefits result from the successful development of both institutions’ activities, their credibility, and their reputation.
The possibilities become real
This unique asset will allow the Oceano Azul Foundation to:
. Promote an emotional connection with the ocean by showcasing the beauty of the underwater world to the general public;
. Communicate with over 1.5 million people every year (visitors);
. Increase recognition and enhance the relevance of its initiatives;
. Benefit from highly experienced professionals in biology (> 30 biologists), education, conservation, communication, and marketing;
. Be part of an already extensive network of universities, NGOs, official entities, and other partners;
. Have access to infrastructure and other resources, thus becoming more efficient;
. Gain immediate knowledge for the Ocean Literacy Pillar, benefiting from the Oceanário de Lisboa’s educational program, which today reaches over 75,000 children and adults every year.
We are already improving:
. Building better infrastructure;
. Accelerating the planned investments by several years;
. Strengthening Blue Literacy and Conservation activities through programs promoted by the Oceanário de Lisboa.
