About Us
AIMM is a non-profit, non-governmental organisation that seeks to protect marine species through our research and conservation efforts, especially of those inhabiting the Atlantic Ocean.
Founded in 2010, AIMM's work has expanded from our base in South Portugal to the coasts of Africa, with the focus of our work being marine mammals in their natural environment.
