The responsibility to defend nature belongs to each of us as individuals<br />

We work with the Confederation<br />

of <strong>Whale</strong>-watching Boats of<br />

Tenerife to conduct research<br />

on the whales and dolphins<br />

and raise awareness of<br />

conservation issues.<br />

Our third aim is to<br />

empower people to<br />

make a difference.<br />

The <strong>Atlantic</strong> <strong>Whale</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong>,<br />

Number 1076270, is a British<br />

registered charity run by volunteers.<br />

It was founded to continue the work<br />

of Spanish environmental agency,<br />

Proyecto Ambiental Tenerife<br />

Our first aim is to promote<br />

conservation through education<br />

“Enc<strong>our</strong>againg individuals to make a difference through positive actions<br />

within communities, the environment and in nature globally”<br />

The AWF ́s Volunteer Programme provides opportunities for young people to use their skills towards<br />

conservation goals, learning through experience - Photographers, artists, media people, film and video<br />

makers, web designers, graphic and product designers, educationalists, theatre and street actors and<br />

creative writers. In addition to contributing to conservation, these programmes facilitate extraordinary<br />

experience and portfolio development.<br />

The <strong>Whale</strong>Fund is designed to bring together ordinary people working across the world to conserve<br />

nature, the<br />

environment and communities under threat - to enable people to promote their own grassroot projects<br />

and to show w<strong>here</strong> individuals can make a difference, either in volunteering their time, helping in<br />

campaigning, acquiring res<strong>our</strong>ces or providing funding. People to people, no government, no<br />

bureaucracy, no organisations but, rather, a growing global network of ordinary people wanting to<br />

make a difference.<br />
