OCEANA is the largest organization working exclusively on ocean conservation. It was established in 2001 and is based in Washington, D.C., USA. Its North American, South American, and European offices work together on a number of strategic campaigns to achieve measurable results in marine management and conservation for the seas in each country. OCEANA believes especially in the importance of science to identify problems and find solutions.
OCEANA’s office in Brazil is located in Brasilia and works to influence government, society, the fishing industry, and scientists toward necessary changes and adjustments in public policy, planning and activities related to marine fishing. Our strategic goals include encouraging proper exploitation and consumption of target species, protection of nurseries and reproductive aggregations as well as mitigation of bycatch and other impacts in our EEZ in order to recover and maintain the abundance and wealth of our seas, thus benefiting those who depend on it. OCEANA believes that, with proper management and consumption, the oceans will be able to feed a growing human population. That is why our slogan in Brazil is ‘Protect the oceans and feed the world.’
