Driving Change
The Pacific Whale Fund (PWF) is committed to safeguarding Tohorā (whales) and their crucial ocean habitats through collaboration and innovation. In partnership with Ngā Whare Ariki o te Moana Nui a Kiwa, we celebrate the rich connection between whales and Polynesians, acknowledging their intertwined fates in a continuous cycle. Our vision is a thriving Pacific Ocean where whale populations are protected, Indigenous communities lead conservation efforts, and sustainable economies support cultural heritage. Join us in our mission to ensure the long-term health of this vital ecosystem.
