At The WAVE Coalition, our mission is to spark meaningful change for animals, the environment, and future generations through a blend of science, advocacy, creativity, and education. We believe that people and communities should feel empowered to not only care about the animals and their ecosystems but also give them the skills to pursue their career aspirations in the environmental science fields and other STEM fields. By connecting people with hands-on opportunities in the field, whether underwater, in a lab, or in a local habitat, we are nurturing a generation of compassionate leaders and changemakers.
