About usIsland Conservation Society (also known as Fondation
pour la Conservation des Iles in French and Sosyete pour Konservasyon bann Zil in Creole) was registered as an NGO in Seychelles in April 2001. Island Conservation Society owns and manages the Aride Island Nature Reserve, one of the finest nature reserves in the western Indian Ocean. We have also signed an agreement with the Islands Development Company (IDC) to advise and wherever necessary to manage environmental and conservation issues on outer islands under the lease of the IDC. Conservation centres have been established on Alphonse, Desroches and Silhouette with further projects planned. To read and find out more about us, click here |
