The main focus of the Tetiaroa Society is the conservation of the natural and cultural heritage of the island of Tetiaroa. In order to accomplish this we have developed four program areas that further our mission.
The first two allow us to gather and apply knowledge of the islands natural systems, and cultural history. The Scientific Research Program fosters cutting edge experimental and applied research that investigates both local and global topics. The Conservation Program uses scientific and traditional knowledge to manage and protect the islands physical and biological systems, and its cultural heritage.
The second two gather and disseminate knowledge about the island. The Guide Program provides the guests of The Brando resort with in-depth tours and lectures that highlight the natural systems, and cultural history, and inform about on-going scientific and conservation initiatives. The Education Program develops and carries out classroom and field courses for both local and international students from 6th year through University. These courses focus on atoll natural systems, Tetiaroa history, and sustainable development.
