About Archipelagos, Institute of Marine Conservation

Archipelagos Institute of Marine Conservation is a non-profit, non-governmental organization committed to researching and defending the biodiversity of the Greek seas and islands, as well as the entire eastern Mediterranean. Since 1998, Archipelagos has focused on a combination of multidisciplinary scientific research and efficient conservation work in which local communities play an active part. This cooperation creates a strategic foundation that enables and strengthens the activities of Archipelagos at the local, national and European level, allowing us to protect aquatic and terrestrial life against ever-increasing human factors. Archipelagos operates far from city centers and commercial interests, offering a pure, direct approach to environmental conservation. Our research team works in the field throughout the year, directly in the environments we strive to protect. Despite adverse weather conditions that can occur, especially in the winter months, our team’s enthusiasm and commitment has enabled us to conduct valuable research and achieve conservation actions in defense of the environment. We carry out multi-faceted conservation work involving a combination of research expeditions, field surveys and laboratory work while in close collaboration with local communities, national and EU policy makers and the wider media. "Our goal is a truly efficient and effective approach to the environmental protection"
