Sustainability

The Trust aims to work with partners who have the highest possible standards around sustainability and managing environmental impact.

Bark EUROPA is a member of IAATO, the International Association of Antarctica Tour Operators, who advocate and promote safe and environmentally responsible private-sector travel to Antarctica.

This expedition will provide life-changing perspectives to our young explorers, exposing them to the one of the world’s most pristine yet harsh environments. Our outreach projects provide a further opportunity to raise awareness of the Trust’s work to safeguard Antarctica’s important cultural heritage and to educate and inspire young people around Antarctica’s importance to the world.

Sustainability at Bark EUROPA

If you’re interested in learning more about sustainability at Bark EUROPA, they have a highly detailed Sustainability and Research section on their website.

It outlines the measures they take to minimise environmental impact, the kinds of data they collect to support ongoing scientific efforts, and how crew and voyage participants play an active role in protecting the places they visit.
