PARTNERSHIPS

Advancing shark science, together.

Scientific collaboration, research capability and long-term partnerships that extend what shark research can achieve.

Partnerships

Partnership expands what shark research can do.

We collaborate with researchers, institutions, organisations and funders to combine expertise, data, field access, technology and resources around shared scientific objectives.

SHARK SEARCH IN PARTNERSHIP

Scientific capability
built around the project.

Our role can adapt to the needs of the collaboration, from individual identification and long-term monitoring to research records, catalogue development and public-facing science.

Individual photo-identification

Apply shark identification capability to existing or new research programmes, helping distinguish individuals and strengthen repeat-observation records.

Monitoring over time

Build verified re-sighting histories and longer-term individual records that support stronger understanding of movement, recurrence and habitat use.

Research catalogues and programmes

Support catalogue development, research records and collaborative monitoring frameworks that can continue growing as new data becomes available.

Ways to work with Shark Search

Different partnerships. Shared scientific purpose.

Partnerships can take different forms depending on the objective. We work with organisations seeking scientific collaboration, research capability, long-term monitoring or support for shark research and education.

Scientific & institutional collaboration

Build research together.

We collaborate with researchers, universities, scientific institutions and conservation organisations around shared research questions, monitoring priorities and field programmes.

Collaboration may include photo-identification, individual monitoring, catalogue development, data contribution, research design and longer-term scientific programmes.

Identification & monitoring services

Add capability to an existing project.

Shark Search can support organisations that need specialist identification and monitoring capability applied to an existing research or conservation programme.

This can include photo-identification, individual matching, re-sighting histories, catalogue development and ongoing monitoring support.

Funding, corporate & philanthropic partnership

Extend the reach of shark research.

Businesses, foundations and philanthropic partners can help expand field capability, education, monitoring, equipment and the development of long-term shark research programmes.

We look for partnerships that are aligned with scientific integrity, public benefit and genuine contribution to shark research and conservation.
