Young environmentalists
SEA LIFE Munich is committed to getting children interested in the oceans and their protection. The ‘Young environmentalists’ (in German: Junge Umweltschützer) project was launched for this purpose. At several meetings a year, the boys and girls not only get to look behind the scenes at SEA LIFE Munich, but also lend a hand. In the process, they learn what it means to protect the environment and the oceans. Over the course of the year, the ‘young environmentalists’ can look forward to many other exciting topics such as harvesting sharks, preparing animal food and taking water samples. Each child and an accompanying person will also receive a free basic annual pass to explore the aquarium in the Olympic Park even more closely.
Reptile rescue centre, München e.V.
Auffangstation für Reptilien, München e.V. is a non-profit organisation that was founded in 2001. With over 1,500 animals rescued and rehomed every year, it is Germany's largest rescue centre for exotic pets. Educating the public about the high demands of many species is just as important as cooperating with the authorities, other animal welfare organisations and politicians. Specially trained animal keepers, vets and biologists use their scientifically sound working methods to ensure a sustainable improvement in the conditions in which reptiles and other exotic animals are kept throughout Germany. SEA LIFE Munich supports the work of the sanctuary by adopting animals, collecting donations and educating visitors.
German Ocean Foundation
The German Ocean Foundation is a non-profit organisation dedicated to protecting the oceans. It raises awareness of the threats facing the world's oceans and highlights possible courses of action. To this end, it brings together initiatives and projects from all areas of the maritime economy, politics, research and society to form a powerful voice for our oceans.
