When you are a supporter…

The Antarctic Science Foundation is the only Australian-based for-impact organisation inviting philanthropy to participate in the critical field of Antarctic environmental research.

In the last three years, supporters of the Antarctic Science Foundation have contributed over $1.2m to:

support 31 early-career researchers (10 men, 21 women) during the pandemic to complete their PhDs and deliver high-impact research.
back four significant research projects in Antarctic environment science.
contributed to the first detailed “census” of krill in East Antarctica in 14 years (2021 TEMPO voyage).

The Foundation partnered with industry to provide 4,000 tourists with Antarctic science briefings and is working with “The Last Great First” expedition this summer to collect vital climate data during a season- long unsupported ski traverse of Antarctica via the South Pole.

The Foundation provides a clear call to action for Australians and global citizens to learn about Antarctica, get involved and create the impact you wish to see in our world.

When you are a supporter of The Antarctic Science Foundation, you are:

investing in transformational global environmental initiatives under Australia’s stewardship of Antarctica.
supporting environmental research with global reach, impact and prestige.
affirming evidence-based decision-making to guide climate, environmental, and biodiversity strategies and ensure our continued flourishing and way of life.

Antarctica offers us the answers.

Let’s ask the questions together.
