Hey there! If you’re new here, allow us to introduce ourselves. We’re Island Conservation, a global team and network of scientists, ambassadors, animal enthusiasts, artists, and ocean lovers on a mission to restore islands for nature and people worldwide. Our goal is to create a world filled with vibrant biodiversity, resilient oceans, and thriving island communities. From our world’s highest peaks to the deepest depths of the ocean, everything is connected, and we have the opportunity to play a role in keeping that connection alive on islands throughout the world. Our incredible team collaborates with local communities to help achieve their vision of what a healthier island looks like. And the results from this work? Well, they are like no other. They’re long-lasting, tangible (with some transformations happening almost overnight), and extend far beyond the coastline. When islands thrive, so does our planet. Our quirks? We’re bird nerds, we will talk your ears off about guano, nutrient cycles, climate and island community resilience, and much more. We love community-centered solutions, hearing stories from around the world, and a coconut water after a long day in the field. We believe that a healthy ocean starts with healthy islands. And we know that there is in fact hope for our planet, because we see it every day through our work. Follow along on our mission to restore islands for nature and people worldwide. correction: we've been a 501c3 since 1997, but began in 1994 :) — did we mention we like transparency? 14 May 2026

Islands anchor the health of our ocean, support extraordinary biodiversity, and are home to 900 million people. But they face urgent and growing threats, including biodiversity loss, a changing climate, and declining ocean health, that put both ecosystems and communities at risk. We work to change that. Alongside local and Indigenous communities, government agencies, and conservation partners across the globe, our team brings deep expertise, creativity, and a drive to innovate. We are constantly advancing new tools, approaches, and partnerships to restore islands more effectively and at greater scale. Together, we take a holistic approach to restoration: recovering native plants and animals, reviving the nutrient cycles that connect land and sea, and rebuilding ecosystems from the ground up. The results speak for themselves. Seabirds return. Forests regenerate. Coral reefs rebound. Food sources grow abundant again. Species found nowhere else on Earth get a second chance. And communities grow stronger alongside the ecosystems they depend on. With every island restored, we are restoring hope for a healthier planet and a more resilient future.

Nu’utele Island, home to one of Samoa’s last native forests, is showing remarkable signs of recovery just one year into restoration. The early signs of nature rebounding will mean strong forests that stabilize soil, making the island more resilient and an ideal location to bring back the Endangered Ma’oma’o bird. Native seedlings now carpet the forest floor, sea turtles are nesting again, giant taro is growing where crops once failed, and the rare Shy Ground Dove is back! Want to see more stories of recovery and restoration? Head to our impact report at the link in our bio. — About the project: Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) led the restoration in partnership with local landowners, Island Conservation, the Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP)-led PRISMSS, and community members from Aleipata. Between March 2025 and May 2026, field teams ran 12 expeditions and spent more than 130 days implementing and validating the work across the island’s rugged terrain. 13 Nov 2026

Some thoughts on the @turkiyecop31 #Ocean Dialogue, the real synergies with what @islandconservation proposes in its joint position paper for #COP31 and CBD COP17, and, in my opinion, the urgent need for an implementation breakthrough to transform commitments into action and ambition into impact. #COP31 #ClimateAction #OceanAction 12 Nov 2026

📍 COP31, Antalya Healthier forests, more seabirds, and stronger food security for the communities who call these islands home. That’s the goal of Restoring Pacific Islands for Nature and People, a seven-year programme in Palau, Samoa, Tonga, and Wallis and Futuna. It begins with listening: communities and local leaders will shape where and how restoration happens. Announced at #COP31 with €20 million from Germany’s International Climate Initiative (IKI). Our Chief Conservation Officer, Cameron Diver, shares the news from Antalya. Proud to work alongside SPREP , @pcspalau , VEPA and @birdlife.international . #IKI #ClimateAdaptation #PacificIslands #Biodiversity 08 Nov 2026

This year, together with island communities, partners, and donors, we restored habitats, removed damaging invasive species, protected islands and the ocean, and brought back native and at-risk wildlife across 20 island ecosystems.The result of these actions? Improved livelihoods, stronger climate resilience, bolstered food and economic security, enhanced ocean health, species protected that were on the brink of collapse, and incredible transformations from ecosystems in decline to stories of hope. Nu’utele Island, home to one of Samoa’s last native forests, is showing remarkable recovery just one year into restoration. Native seedlings now carpet the forest floor, sea turtles are nesting again, giant taro is growing where crops once failed, and the rare Shy Ground Dove is back. These early signs of nature rebounding will mean strong forests that stabilize the soil, making the island more resilient and an ideal location to bring back the Endangered Ma’oma’o bird. - Thank you to our partners that collaborated with us on this project: SPREP-PRISMSS, Samoa MNRE, and BirdLife. In partnership with the Floreana community and conservation partners, 158 Floreana Giant Tortoises returned to their ancestral island for the first time since before 1846. The first of 12 native species slated for reintroduction, these ecosystem engineers are part of the Galápagos’ largest restoration effort. - Thank you to our partners that collaborated with us on this project: Fundación Jocotoco, Charles Darwin Foundation, GPDN, and Galápagos Conservancy. Across Sonsorol, Fanna, and Merir Islands in Palau, restoration is helping improve food production, protect wildlife, and reduce risk of disease. In a remote region like Sonsorol State, a healthy ecosystem makes a huge difference: from local economic opportunity to growing independence from infrequent food imports, the Sonsorolese people are benefitting from a recovering environment that has long supported their traditions and livelihoods. - Thank you to our partners that collaborated with us on this project: SPREP-PRISMSS, New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, and United Kingdom International Development.

Nearly 90,000 breeding pairs. A 653% recovery. One incredible conservation success story for the Peruvian Diving-petrel (yunco)! New research shows that the breeding population increased from 11,934 pairs in 2013 to nearly 90,000 pairs in 2024. This is a 653% increase since the successful restoration efforts carried out by Island Conservation and partners began over a decade ago. A little over a decade after restoration, Choros Island is recognized as the species’ most important breeding stronghold in Chile. Our Conservation Impact Program Manager said it best: “stories like this remind us that extinction is not inevitable.” Read more at the link in bio. — About the project: This project was made possible thanks to funding support from The David and Lucile Packard Foundation, The Mohamed bin Zayed Species Conservation Fund, Patagonia, Inc, and CONAF. 04 Nov 2026

We have some exciting news! The Smart Island Monitoring System on Floreana Island in the Galápagos has been selected as a Top 50 Finalist for the 2026 Premios Verdes, one of the region’s most recognized platforms for identifying and amplifying high-impact environmental and social initiatives across Latin America and the Caribbean. Developed by Island Conservation with technology partners Wildlife Protection Solutions, Smart Parks, and EarthRanger, the Smart Island Monitoring System was deployed on Floreana through a collaboration with Fundación Jocotoco and the Galápagos National Park Directorate. By capturing and analyzing more than 8,500 photos each month, it is transforming wildlife monitoring and freeing conservation teams to spend more time working in the field. Read more at the link in our bio. Photos by @fundacion.jocotoco / @jocotoco.conservation — About the project This technological initiative strengthens the monitoring and management actions of species that are developed as part of the Ecological Restoration project of Floreana Island, led by the Galapagos National Park Directorate and the Biosecurity and Quarantine Agency for Galapagos. The implementation of the Smart Island Monitoring system is developed by Island Conservation in coordination with the Jocotoco Foundation, together with the support of the German Development Bank and the ComMon Foundation, through the Charles Darwin Foundation, in addition to technological contributions from Wildlife Protection Solutions, Smart Parks and Ai2’s EarthRanger. The Floreana Island Ecological Restoration Project is part of the Island-Ocean Connection Challenge, an international collective initiative aimed at advancing the comprehensive restoration of 40 globally important islands by 2030. Its joint execution has the participation of the Jocotoco Foundation, Charles Darwin Foundation and Island Conservation, together with the support of various allied organizations, including the Conservando Galápagos Foundation. Throughout this process, multiple institutions and collaborators have contributed to the development of this conservation initiative. 24 Oct 2026
