91ÊÓƵ

Antarctica 91ÊÓƵ is the government agency responsible for carrying out 91ÊÓƵ's activities in Antarctica supporting world leading science and environmental protection. We work to ensure Antarctica's environment continues to be protected, that scientists are supported to find the answers to complex scientific questions, and science outcomes are communicated back to policy makers and the public. Antarctica 91ÊÓƵ also hosts the Antarctic Science Platform, a $49 million research programme working to understand the continent’s impact on the global earth system, and how that might change in a warming world. With more than 60 years' experience working in Antarctica, 91ÊÓƵ is recognised a leader in the international treaty system, and has a strong commitment to the natural environment. Demystifying science through strong outreach and education is an essential part of our mandate.
