Oulanga Na Nyamba

The Oulanga Na Nyamba Association was founded in 1998 in order to raise awareness about marine turtles in Mayotte where poaching still occurs. Literally translated the name of the association means “environment” and “marine turtles”, which they try to protect actively with outreach projects to the public and protection of turtle nesting sites. Research projects aim to increase our knowledge on the ecology of the animals in order to be able to implement effective management plans. Jenny Wagner from Odyssea is the secretary of Oulanga Na Nyamba and spends most her time in Mayotte.

The Luxembourgish Federation of Underwater Activities and Sports partners with Odyssea on several projects. You can find a list of associated clubs here.

Pacific Whale Foundation

Pacific Whale Foundation’s mission is to protect our oceans through science and advocacy using marine research, education and conservation programs. Through their ocean ecotours, they have already reached nearly 3.5 million people, sharing their passion about the marine environment, while raising needed funds to support vital whale and dolphin research studies, educational programs for children and adults, as well as important conservation programs, including their fight to stop commercial whaling.

Sousa

The SouSA project is an inter-group collaboration on the scientific research on Indian Ocean humpback dolphins in South Africa. With less than 1,000 individuals left in the country, the humpback dolphin is South Africa’s most endangered dolphin species! The project aims to determine the conservation status of humpback dolphins along the South African coastlines, which will be vital to ensure appropriate management actions to be put in place.

Whalefish

Whalefish is a global network of scientists who dedicate their time to the research and conservation of our oceans’ wildlife. They work under the motto “Connect, Share & Inspire” with a strong focus on creating opportunities and offering career advice for aspiring students, early career researchers and marine enthusiast alike. They are also aiming to bridge the gap between the scientific community and the public and engage in scientific communication, education and outreach programmes.
