The Whale Coast Conservation Trust (WCCT) was established in 2002 with the mission to unify, coordinate and promote environmentally sustainable living in the Cape Whale Coast region of the Western Cape.  The major focus of the organisation is community development through environmental education, to understand and appreciate the unique Whale Coast environment. The programme educates through schools Expos, nature excursions, citizen-science research and conservation projects, as well as community projects.

The AVI Community Trust has partnered with the WCCT to inspire environmental learning and an understanding of one-planet/sustainable lifestyles by sponsoring a series of Expos to Gansbaai schools. The purpose is to promote and make children aware of the critical ecological role that estuaries play in the Whale Coast area.
