Become an Eco-Volunteer in Blue World Institute, Croatia
The Blue World Institute of Marine Research and Conservation is a Non-Governmental Organisation from Veli Lošinj, Croatia, set up with the intention to carry out scientific research and conservation projects and promote environmental awareness in the Lošinj-Cres archipelago, Croatia and Adriatic region as a whole. The major scientific research interest of Blue World Institute is the study of bottlenose dolphins (*Tursiops truncatus*) in the Adriatic Sea, implemented through the Adriatic Dolphin Project. Initiated in 1987 it is now the longest continuous study of a population of bottlenose dolphins in the Mediterranean Sea. The aim is research on population ecology, genetics, acoustics and habitats of bottlenose dolphins and other Cetacean species of the Adriatic. Within the Adriatic Dolphin Project, Blue World Institute conducts an Eco-volunteering program for highly motivated individuals who come to join the research and help in data collecting and analysis throughout the season. During the course period, Eco-volunteers are being educated in cetacean biology, marine conservation and scientific research techniques by the resident researchers. Received funds from this program are important for further research and conservation in this region.
