Research and Education

Our three Biological Stations form a network of conservation centers and living laboratories. In these spaces, we host leading scientists who conduct high-quality research that is essential for informed decision-making contributing to the protection of the Amazon Andes.

Our conservation approach is based on the application of innovative scientific advances to implement field projects, promote actions that contribute to public policy development, and educate and inspire the next generation of conservationists.

For more than 20 years, we have achieved these advances thanks to the valuable contributions and collaboration of partner organizations. Our work has had a significant impact on the training of outstanding leaders and researchers committed to biodiversity conservation.

WE CONSERVE WITH SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

Research

We work across a diverse landscape, from the snow-capped peaks of the Andes to the tropical rainforest, passing through cloud forests and puna grasslands. Conserving this landscape means preserving unique species and essential ecosystem services.

Manu serves as our natural laboratory in the tropical Andes. From there, we study the Amazonian ecosystems andAndean cloud forests. Our three Biological Stations functions as research and learning centers, where scientists from around the world immerse themselves in nature. We share these discoveries with students and decision-makers.

We support young researchers through academic scholarships that allow them to explore the Amazon rainforest and cloud forests while training as scientists and conservationists. Together, we work to protect some of the planet's most valuable ecosystems.

Education

We offer field courses in collaboration with universities and research programs in Peru and abroad. These courses are held at our three Biological Stations, located in the Amazon rainforest and the Andean cloud forest, where students share facilities and experiences with resident scientists.
Our research centers include field laboratories, classrooms, and useful plant gardens, and can accommodate up to 30 students in shared rooms. We provide access to diverse habitats and rich protected biodiversity, including world records in species diversity, as well as opportunities to visit nearby Indigenous and campesino communities.
We work closely with instructors to design programs tailored to students’ needs. We also offer environmental education programs for primary and secondary school students and teachers, encouraging the exchange of experiences and knowledge.
