Polar Conservation Organisation

The Polar Conservation Organisation is a non-profit organisation headquartered in Brussels, the European capital. It has been set up to provide comprehensive information about the Polar regions, and consequently wants to see the resources of those regions used and sustained in a way that benefits its natural inhabitants and the planet as a whole. Compared to other charities and organisations, PCO is much broader than simply global warming and polar bears. Although PCO realises just how important these issues are, we are also interested in indigenous peoples’ rights, national sovereignty issues, the conservation of the Polar regions, the environment, political role models for cooperation, and more. The Polar Conservation Organisation would like to be recognised as the focal point for information, discussion and political and public opinions about the Polar regions. Our ambition is for PCO to become recognised as the organisation that aggregates and facilitates information, discussion and political and public opinion forming in Europe. A key milestone is the establishment of a common EU policy and the appointment of a Commissioner for Polar Policy. (read less)
