Ocean Torchbearers, Sharks & Rays Need You!
Be Part of the global movement of divers and advocates taking ocean action.
Turn Awe into Action and Support Shark and Ray Protection
This month, sharks and rays are in the spotlight and they need our help!
Over a third of all species of sharks and rays could disappear in our lifetimes. But together we have a chance to create change.
In this edition, explore CITES, PADI AWARE’s petition, and our end-of-year shark fundraiser—so you, as an Ocean Torchbearer, can stay informed and help protect our most vulnerable marine species. Hear from some amazing ocean advocates and PADI AmbassaDivers about their work in manta and shark conservation. Also, get ready to celebrate Adaptive Diving Week with us and PADI Dive Centers and Resorts around the world.
Get Inspired and Share Your Voice
Sharks and rays shape the seas that sustain us all, but the ocean is falling silent. Learn why these species are endangered and how we can all help in a very simple way – by sharing our voice!
Sign the Petition to Protect Sharks and Manta Rays
This November, governments from around the world will meet at CITES Cop20 Summit (Convention of International Trade of Endangered Species) to decide on whether to strengthen protection for threatened species. From 1- 21 November, PADI AWARE is rallying the global dive community to secure the highest level of protection (Appendix I) for manta rays, whale sharks, and oceanic whitetips - prohibiting international commercial trade. Your voice can help protect these threatened species!
