The Eco Lab: Our Conservation Research Hub

At Cousine Island, our eco and research lab stands at the core of our conservation philosophy. It serves as a vital hub where our dedicated conservation management team meticulously analyzes and records invaluable data collected from the field. This ongoing research is crucial for comprehensively monitoring and enhancing the understanding of our island's diverse species.

Our team collaborates closely with research scientists from across the globe, fostering partnerships aimed at refining existing methodologies and pioneering new techniques. This collaborative effort is aimed at advancing our knowledge and implementing best practices to effectively conserve and protect our fragile ecosystem and the myriad species that call Cousine Island home.

Through rigorous scientific inquiry and continuous monitoring, we strive not only to preserve the natural habitats and biodiversity of Cousine Island but also to contribute to broader global conservation efforts. The research conducted in our eco and research lab spans various disciplines, from studying endangered species like the Seychelles Warbler and Seychelles Magpie-Robin to monitoring the health of coral reefs and assessing the impact of climate change.

By integrating cutting-edge research with hands-on conservation efforts, we aim to establish a sustainable model that balances environmental stewardship with responsible eco-tourism. Visitors to Cousine Island can witness firsthand the transformative impact of scientific research on conservation practices, ensuring a harmonious coexistence between humans and nature for generations to come.vv
