Shark Project: Fight for sharks!
www.sharkproject.com

A lot of organizations and initiatives revolve around shark protection and conservation. Points of emphasis are raising awareness, spreading information and education concerning the importance of sharks and the human threat by overfishing. However, only a few of these initiatives offer real help, and too often, internal costs exceed the benefits and hence the work is of rather theoretical meaning. That is where SHARKPROJECT comes into play. SHARKPROJECT is a non-for-profit organization where every member dedicates time and his own money to the cause and for the sole benefit of sharks.

SHARKPROJECT stands for better understanding of sharks, with special emphasis on protection, conservation and research of these misunderstood creatures.
Scientific projects mainly focus on the way too long neglected interaction between men and sharks, the core element of devastation and misunderstanding since the raise of JAWS.
