ABOUT DOLPHIN RESEARCH INSTITUTE
The Dolphin Research Institute (DRI) is a not-for-profit organisation aiming to achieve positive outcomes for four key impact areas: Dolphins and whales, the marine environment, the community and for a strong organisation. The DRI’s research program collects long-term, non-invasive data on dolphins and whales in and around Victorian waters to inform environmental management and decision-making. The DRI also runs the award-winning ‘i sea i care’ education program, which empowers thousands of students and their communities to become ambassadors for the marine environment.
