What We Do

OUR
WORK

As a policy-oriented NGO and think tank, Agenda Antártica operates through three interconnected pillars — science, governance, and education — to protect Antarctica and strengthen the international frameworks that govern it.

Our Focus Areas

Three Pillars of Work

Agenda Antártica is a policy-oriented NGO and think tank. Each pillar addresses a distinct but complementary dimension of Antarctic protection — generating knowledge, shaping policy, and building a global community of advocates.

Pillar 01

Science, Environment and Innovation

We advance scientific understanding of Antarctica and the Southern Ocean, supporting research that connects ecological data to policy needs. Through technology partnerships, we help translate complex findings into accessible tools for decision-makers and the public.

Pillar 02

Policy, Governance and Global Cooperation

We engage with international governance frameworks — the Antarctic Treaty System, CCAMLR, and the Madrid Protocol — advocating for evidence-based, multilateral approaches and amplifying Latin American civil society voices in global Antarctic forums. Antarctica has demonstrated for over six decades that peaceful international cooperation can endure; our work is dedicated to keeping it that way.

Pillar 03

Education and Leadership

We design and deliver educational programs, workshops, and resources that build Antarctic literacy across schools, universities, and professional networks — cultivating the next generation of advocates, scientists, and policymakers committed to Antarctic protection.
