ECO-SEA recognizes that the conservation of biological and cultural diversity is best achieved on site by local communities. We provide technical, logistical, administrative and financial support to communities working to conserve their biocultural heritage. Our collaborative programs in ethnoecological research and institutional strengthening heighten the capacity of indigenous and immigrant communities to document, interpret and actively conserve native taxa (plant and animal communities) and related traditions (foods, handicrafts, medicines, rituals, stories) as well as natural and cultural landscapes.
