The Antinea Foundation is a Switzerland-based non-profit organisation with the mission to play an innovative role in the conservation of the oceans. The Foundation’s projects are articulated around its flagship: the sailing boat "Fleur de Passion" which will circumnavigate the world exploring its most important and threatened marine regions as identified by the WWF’s Global 200 project. This expedition named "The Changing Oceans Expedition"〔The Changing Oceans Expedition website http://www.changingoceans.org〕 is conducted in close co-operation with the IUCN.〔"What is the real state of our oceans?", IUCN http://cms.iucn.org/fr/congress_fr/nouvelles_congres/index.cfm?uNewsID=1836〕 In 2008 Antinea Foundation and its expedition received patronage of the UNESCO. To carry out its mission the Foundation is creating a partnership network of leading organisations in the scientific, conservation, eco-tourism and media fields. The organisation acts as a supporting and strengthening element, not only assembling skills and know-how but also contributing its resources to the particular mission of each of its partners and communicating the underlying conservation issues to a wider public. ==Objectives== Antinea Foundation's mission to play an innovative role in protecting the oceans is carried out by focussing on three main objectives: #Scientific Research: Contributing to a better scientific understanding of the marine environment, in particular by providing scientists access to the organisation's expedition vessel "Fleur de Passion" #Communication & Education: Raising public awareness and media attention on marine conservation issues making use of cutting-edge communication tools #Participation: Giving members of the Foundation and further individuals the opportunity to become involved in projects as eco-volunteers 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Antinea Foundation」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
