CENTER FOR THE CONSERVATION OF AUSTRAL
ECOSYSTEMS (ICEA) ICEA is a nonprofit organization in southern Chile advancing ecological research, applied conservation, and community engagement across marine, freshwater, and terrestrial environments. The team leads long-term monitoring, endangered species research, and science-based education while building partnerships that strengthen regional conservation capacity. ICEA also runs the Patagonia Science–Business Linkage Program, training expedition guides to collect environmental data and share conservation messages with guests. Guest auction funds strengthened ICEA’s field capabilities through equipment
that supports long-term monitoring in sensitive coastal ecosystems and
improves underwater data for conservation planning. For a small organization, this support improves safety, increases research capacity, and sustains ongoing ecosystem monitoring.
