An integral part of the Pew Institute’s work is the prestigious
Pew Fellows Program in Marine Conservation. The Pew Fellows
Program strives to promote, preserve and protect the health
and sustainability of ocean species and ecosystems by conferring
the world's only awards dedicated to applied marine conservation.
Each year, the Program makes five major grants to exemplary
individuals, who undertake pioneering projects tackling urgent
challenges in the ocean realm. The fellowships support implementation
of innovative initiatives to help solve marine problems. These
grants also raise the profile of leaders in marine conservation
and enhance public awareness of the direct and crucial relationships
between the health and vitality of life in the sea and life
on land.
Since 1990, nearly 140 Pew Fellows working in more than 20
countries and every one of the world's oceans have been selected
to conduct work on marine ecosystems, fisheries management,
coastal conservation and marine contamination. Results have
ranged from award-winning books to new satellite technology
for tracking pelagic species to the establishment of marine
protected areas around the world. |
