Our Vision

Life on earth is currently in crisis — our vision is to grow the skills needed to explore, promote, manage, and conserve the natural world, from the foundation of all life: plants and algae.

Our Mission

To inspire critical thinkers who are passionate about the natural world and its inhabitants — with a focus on algae and plants across all levels: from cells to ecosystems. Our scholars should be ingrained with a quest for lifelong learning, outreach, and research on vital botanical topics
