Co-Galápagos

Our mission is to promote CO-llaboration, CO-operation and CO-ordination to achieve the 2030 SDG Agenda in Galápagos.

We support researchers, policy-makers and the community to drive progress toward 40 prioritised targets of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Within this, we build opportunities, bridges and collaborative networks for local community leaders and young Galapagueños. We facilitate community-led projects addressing pressing social, economic and ecological issues, and promote communication between different groups and institutions. Overall, we seek to improve social well-being in harmony with biodiversity conservation in Galapagos, using a model that prioritises empowerment of the local community.​
