We promote capacity building for professionals in charge of the management of marine protected areas in the Southern Cone and other countries, in order to improve the effective management of conservation units, with a view to certifying their competencies. We carry out this work through alliances with universities and protected area systems in the region.

We work to strengthen the resilience of coastal and marine protected areas, implementing solutions that contribute to the conservation and protection of marine life and collaborate in building the capacities of those who work in the marine environment. An example of this work is MaRes, a project being developed in Argentina with financial support from the European Union.

We work on communication, citizen participation and advocacy actions to warn about the impacts of salmon farming activities in areas of high ecological value and great ecosystemic fragility, such as marine protected areas. The actions promoted are inspired by the lessons learned from the expansion of the industry in Chile.

We analyze and disseminate high quality information about the severe impacts caused by the expansion of offshore hydrocarbon activity on the biodiversity of the Patagonian Sea, other human activities, and the global climate.

We facilitate cooperation between Southern Cone countries in international agreements for biodiversity management. We encourage the participation of organizations and civil society in global debates and support the implementation of treaties such as the BBNJ Agreement and the Global Plastics Treaty. In addition, we organize training courses and exchanges to improve understanding of the threats to biodiversity and the importance of ratifying these agreements.

We promote education in conservation values, highlighting empathy as a driving force to protect marine biodiversity and its habitats. We foster environmental awareness and the lasting commitment of the region's communities to the conservation of the Patagonian Sea.

We focus our efforts on generating a better understanding of the problem of marine plastic pollution from fishing operations on the biodiversity of the Patagonian Sea and on promoting comprehensive solutions to prevent it.

We promote the creation and strengthening of marine and coastal protected areas as fundamental tools to counteract the biodiversity and climate crises. We work together with governments, communities and academics to consolidate diagnoses and issue recommendations based on the most rigorous and up-to-date knowledge available.
