Announced on 7 November 2023 by Robert Irwin of Australia Zoo-fame, under the auspices of founder William, Prince of Wales, the Earthshot Prize rewarded five accomplished innovators and entrepreneurs chosen from among 15 finalists, who were each awarded £1 million in prize money to help scale their solutions and accelerate their growth and impact.

Receiving the award in the Revive our Oceans category, WildAid Chief Operating Officer Meaghan Brosnan attributed the honour to the hard work of the entire WildAid global team, who work with hundreds of local partners to establish effective enforcement systems that protect the biodiversity of their waters.

Two months later, speaking with Ocean, Brosnan describes the impact of the award on WildAid’s objectives as a “wonderful boost to our ability to scale up our existing programs and expand to new sites.
