SAFE Shark and Rays 3-Year Program Goal

The overarching goal is to integrate AZA SAFE Sharks and Rays into existing global collaborative efforts to safeguard shark and ray populations. It will use AZA institutions’ unique position, access and knowledge base to:

Expand relationships, close data gaps, and enhance understanding of species biology and ecology to enable evidence-based support for conservation action.

Promote meaningful change and engage positive action among key public and stakeholder groups.

Drive a change of narrative in shark conservation – supporting communication that is engaging, directed, and aligned with the goals of science-based shark conservation.

Create opportunities for AZA facilities and private partners to provide support in the most direct, impactful, and collaborative process for conservation of this taxa.
