Protecting a treasure
In a world ravaged by destruction and exploitation, the Chagos Archipelago has become a precious marine environment.
The Trust strives to preserve this collection of over 55 islands and 60,000km of reefs for the many species that call it home, and for future generations to appreciate.
CCT is committed to working towards fully understanding the globally important natural environment of the Chagos Archipelago and ensuring it is well protected and conserved for the benefit of people and our planet.
We plan to:
- Build our Healthy Islands, Healthy Reefs programme
- Conserving and restoring the islands of the Chagos Archipelago by developing a better understanding of the terrestrial habitat and species
