MORAES, an environmental research organization based in Miami, FL, was founded to inspire and support local marine ecologists. We provide a clear pathway for involvement through applied research, publishing, volunteering, and educational outreach. Our mission is to protect South Florida’s marine resources through collaborative community engagement and stewardship.
By addressing local environmental challenges with innovative research and conservation techniques, we strive to make a lasting impact. Thanks to grant funding, donations, and the generosity of our supporters, we offer internships, scholarships, and research opportunities that contribute to habitat restoration, beach cleanups, sea turtle monitoring, cetacean research, and more.
