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 promote actions aimed at ensuring that the ecosystems of the Argentine Sea maintain the integrity of their biodiversity, with measures aimed at facilitating their capacity to adapt and mitigate climate change, contributing to the health and well-being of people.
The project will focus on strengthening the Southern Patagonia Interjurisdictional Coastal Marine Park (PIMCPA), the Península Valdés Natural Protected Area in the Province of Chubut and Marine Protected Areas of the National System of Marine Protected Areas (SNAMP), with actions that will include the adjacent sea.
An approach to the rich biodiversity of the Marine Coastal Protected Areas (MCPAs), through these key species that we want to protect. Each one represents a vital link in the delicate balance of our oceans.

(Mirounga leonina)
Our actions are strategic points that, when activated, generate a collective impact on the well-being of marine ecosystems. These strategies are deployed on four interconnected fronts:
Promotes training, education and awareness to strengthen territorial capacities and promote the sustainable management of Natural Protected Areas (NPAs).
Promotes marine conservation policies and improves management tools, aligning them with national and international standards for officials, technicians, and key sectors such as fisheries and tourism in the management of Protected Natural Areas NPAs.
Promotes transparency by facilitating access to relevant information and seeks to involve society through effective participatory processes in the responsible management of marine resources.
Emphasizes communication to raise awareness about marine conservation, using project data and achievements to generate results-oriented messages and improve accessibility to information.
