three lines of action
In this sense, the Foundation’s action is structured in three lines of action: Research, Education and Communities.
We focus on supporting our own and others’ research and innovation initiatives in the ecosystems near our destinations that favour their conservation, protection and restoration, with the aim of contributing to coastal resilience.
The aim is to promote and raise awareness mainly among children and adolescents (but open to everyone), through education regarding the importance of caring for and protecting the natural spaces that surround us in order to build a sustainable future.
Participatory actions and projects focused on the search for empowerment and dignity for local communities, which are planned and sustainable while integrating the protection, recovery and strengthening of natural resources and their environment.
