WHO WE ARE
We are an institute dedicated to Antarctic and sub-Antarctic research. The BASE Millennium Institute integrates natural and social sciences to understand and preserve southern ecosystems.
The BASE Millennium Institute (Antarctic and Sub-Antarctic Biodiversity) aims to generate excellent scientific knowledge on Antarctic and sub-Antarctic ecosystems, contributing to their conservation and the development of evidence-based public policies.
Our conservation and governance objectives focus on strengthening the protection of southern biodiversity through interdisciplinary research, promoting international collaboration and knowledge transfer to society.
BASE operates within the Millennium Scientific Initiative Program of the National Research and Development Agency (ANID) and the Ministry of Science, Technology, Knowledge, and Innovation, establishing itself as a national reference in Antarctic research.
