Introduction
Bertarelli Foundation
The marine science programme was
established by the Bertarelli Foundation
in 2017 to advance our understanding
of large marine protected areas so they
can be better managed. Our focus is on
the Indian Ocean, where we address the
protection of marine biodiversity and
securing ocean health and use science to
inform management and conservation in
the region. Our highly collaborative and
interdisciplinary projects are led by some
of the world’s leading marine scientists
who are pushing the boundaries of their
fields. We have a strong emphasis on
effective and innovative communication,
capacity building and increasing regional
opportunities and access to marine science.
