65 Years of Science and Conservation: The Living Legacy of the Charles Darwin Foundation

In 2024, the Charles Darwin Foundation (CDF) commemorated 65 years of continuous work in favor of scientific research and conservation of the Galapagos Islands. This anniversary not only marks an outstanding trajectory, but also invites reflection on the role that new generations and authorities must assume to strengthen the protection of this unique natural heritage.
