National organisation of SHARKPROJECT Switzerland, with headquarters near Zurich

SHARKPROJECT Switzerland Association

We in Switzerland also have to be tough and fight for the shark and the sea!

Even in landlocked Switzerland, we can do something for the sharks and the sea! Most of the work is indirect, but it ultimately benefits the shark and the sea. We often still hear about "man-eater" or "the shark is dangerous, I would be afraid to meet one". These statements come from ignorance. That is why education is important to us, first and foremost!

We at Sharkproject Switzerland offer lectures for schools, clubs, at corporate events or for companies and groups. Topics can be:

Biology of the shark with its fascinating senses
behaviour when diving with sharks and
the abuses in the oceans and why the shark is so important
why the shark is so important in the ecosystem and more, depending on your wishes and requests.

You can write to us and arrange for us to give talks. schule@sharkproject.org

We are always looking for active support, because our motto is: EVERYONE can help! You are welcome to contact us and inform yourself.

If you would like to become a member, you can join for 50.- Fr/year. There is a General Assembly (GA) once a year, which is announced in good time with a "save the date". Two weeks before the AGM you will receive all the necessary documents. You will automatically be registered for the newsletter, where you can read about all our events. In addition, a shark will be introduced in the newsletter.

If you only want to be a "silent helper", then donations or sponsorships are of course also very welcome.

For us it is important to mention: We are ALL working on a voluntary basis and are proud of it!
In the name of the sharks, we from Sharkproject Switzerland say "Thank you! For trusting our work and supporting us, no matter how!"
