  2. The Oceania Project was established in 1988 and is a not for profit research and information organisation dedicated to raising awareness about Cetacea (Whales, Dolphins, Porpoises and the Ocean Environment). Trish and Wally Franklin run The Oceania Project, Events and the Webpage.

  3. The Oceania Project’s Webpage is full of real life story’s, information on these marine mammals, photo’s and film’s and current event’s the project hold’s. Trish and Wally with the help of volunteers have done a wonderful job on the research of Humpback Whale’s and the research event went for 24 year’s. (1989-2013) These long term observation’s and study’s were so they could unravel and understand the complex social organisation and the behaviour of the Humpback Whale’s.

  4. The Oceania Project run an annual “The Oceania Youth Project”. This is for 14-18 year olds and they travel aboard on an expedition to Hervey Bay to help with research and documentation of the whale’s. The Oceania Youth Internship Project volunteer’s live and work for 5 nights/6 days aboard, with a crew of marine mammal research scientist’s.

  5. The website also has links to iwhales.org’. It is a portal to the whale’s and dolphin’s, it has available lot’s of photo’s and video’s of their expedition’s. Many are available to buy from The Oceania Project’s shop. You can help support the ongoing research and education by becoming an iwhale subscriber. Upon doing so you will receive an annual iwhales gift certificate.
