Active work in the field for the preservation and restoration of nature through scientific studies
Our values and our mission
A Rocha is a Christian nature conservation organization, our name coming from the Portuguese for ‘the Rock’, as the first initiative (started in 1983) was a field study centre in Portugal. A Rocha projects are frequently cross-cultural in character, and share a community emphasis. From the start, they have emphasised:
- Active work in the field for the preservation and restoration of nature through scientific studies
- Carrying out awareness-raising activities (environmental education and among the Christian public), to bring about a change in human behaviour that leads to respect for the environment.
