Who We Are
The PADI AWARE Foundation is a publicly funded non-profit with three registered charities across the globe. Backed by the power of the PADI® brand and supported by the world’s largest global network of dive centers and resorts and dive instructors worldwide, PADI AWARE Foundation can fully leverage the collective influence of divers and the dive industry to address key threats facing the marine environment. Working alongside PADI, we drive towards our collective vision to achieve balance between humanity and the ocean.
Mission and Impact
Our mission to ‘Drive local action for global ocean conservation’ is carried out through citizen science, public policy, and community grants. For over 30 years, PADI and AWARE have built a truly unique voice for the protection of the underwater world. Together, we have set ambitious ocean conservation targets through a shared Blueprint for Ocean Action that provides the framework to tackle key threats to the ocean and create ocean change in our dive communities around the world.
