International Galapagos Science Consortium
We are a global alliance of leading universities and research institutions committed to advancing science, conservation, and sustainability through the Galapagos Science Center (GSC). By leveraging the unique ecological and social systems of the Galapagos Islands, Consortium members collaborate on research, education, and community engagement initiatives that address some of the world’s most pressing environmental challenges.
The Consortium serves as a platform for international research partnerships, provides transformative experiential learning opportunities for students, and expands the global impact of scientific discovery and service.
