New Island Restoration
The New Island Restoration Programme aims to restore our New Island site in the Falklands, by removing invasive species to protect and rejuvenate its unique wildlife and habitats. Key goals include reintroducing endemic species, safeguarding endangered birds, and combating ecological degradation. But crucial funding is still required in order to realise this programme through to success.
New IslandWhale Projects
The project aims to better understand sei and southern right whales in the Falkland Islands, critical to developing effective conservation and management of whale populations, and ensuring their continued recovery from the whaling era.
