Since 2004, the EUAC Conservation Fund has granted over a quarter of a million euros to approximately 50 conservation projects spanning the globe. These initiatives, diverse in nature and scale, have yielded tangible impacts on local populations and their focal species. This paper delves into the outcomes of these conservation endeavors and proposes enhancements to ensure that the funding is unequivocally channeled towards conservation efforts. One resounding observation gleaned from the array of projects spotlighted in this study is the profound community engagement that emerges, irrespective of the final project outcomes. These endeavors serve as a catalyst for local communities, shedding light on subjects that would otherwise remain shrouded in obscurity. Furthermore, the EUAC-backed projects illuminate the expansive reach of public aquarium initiatives, transcending the confines of acrylic tank walls and institutional boundaries to resonate globally, heightening local awareness about the imperative to safeguard biodiversity. These findings underscore a prospective trajectory for both the EUAC and the public aquaria it comprises: an intensified advocacy and collaboration with legislative bodies to fortify in situ conservation measures. In essence, it is imperative that the public comprehends the pivotal role played by aquaria in preserving a multitude of species and acknowledges that their visits directly contribute to funding projects aimed at safeguarding species within their natural habitats.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jzbg5010007","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,7]],"date-time":"2024-02-07T06:12:58Z","timestamp":1707286378000},"page":"90-118","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["A Review of Two Decades of In Situ Conservation Powered by Public Aquaria"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"5","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3613-5420","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jo\u00e3o","family":"Correia","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"MARE\u2014Marine and Environmental Sciences Centre, ESTM, Polit\u00e9cnico de Leiria, 2520-641 Peniche, Portugal"},{"name":"Flying Sharks, Rua Farrobim do Sul 116, 9900-361 Horta, Portugal"}]},{"given":"Nicole","family":"Kube","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"German Oceanographic Museum, Katharinenberg 14-20, 18439 Stralsund, Germany"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0008-5512-674X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lauren","family":"Florisson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"European Association of Zoos and Aquaria, Plantage Middenlaan 45, 1018 DC Amsterdam, The Netherlands"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3097-0097","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Max","family":"Janse","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Royal Burgers\u2019 Zoo, Anton van Hooffplein 1, 6816 SH Arnhem, The Netherlands"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4428-8451","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Brian","family":"Zimmerman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bristol Zoological Society, Bristol Zoo Gardens, Clifton, Bristol BS8 3HA, UK"}]},{"given":"Doris","family":"Preininger","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Vienna Zoo, Maxingstra\u00dfe 13b, 1130 Wien, Austria"}]},{"given":"Jonas","family":"Nowaczek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"German Oceanographic Museum, Katharinenberg 14-20, 18439 Stralsund, Germany"}]},{"given":"Anton","family":"Weissenbacher","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Vienna Zoo, Maxingstra\u00dfe 13b, 1130 Wien, Austria"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6646-9990","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hugo","family":"Batista","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Ocean\u00e1rio de Lisboa, Esplanada D.
