About us
We are AMACO (Associação Madeirense para a Conservação Marinha/Madeiran Association for Marine Conservation) a NGO devoted to the acquisition of scientific knowledge on the marine ecosystems of Madeira archipelago and raising public awareness on the threats and pressures that these ecosystems face.
Acting at a regional level, AMACO’s members are scientists and/or concerned citizens that possess a solid background on the particularities of the island’s biological communities and habitats, as well as the social issues that Outermost Regions face.
