Oiled Wildlife Response Support

Supporting global wildlife response through expertise and collaboration

Our partnership with Sea Alarm, a renowned organisation with established expertise in wildlife emergency preparedness and response, offer our members technical advice as part of our core membership coverage.

As part of this service, two specialists are available from Sea Alarm at any time to assist with remote advice and monitoring, and analysing any unfolding scenarios that may lead to significant wildlife impacts:

One specialist is ready to be deployed onsite to assist the Incident Management Team (IMT), connecting with relevant in-country authorities, stakeholders and responders.
The second specialist can provide remote support, applying Sea Alarm's international connectivity.

Sea Alarm is a small non-governmental organisation that works to improve global preparedness for oiled wildlife incidents. Sea Alarm's personnel have unique expertise that includes wildlife incident assessment and management, wildlife planning and preparedness development, response network management, good practice dissemination, and design and development of training and exercises. Sea Alarm specialists do not handle animals, but as advisers, they help create the environment and conditions that mobilised wildlife response specialists need to make a difference during an incident.
