The Swiss Cetacean Society – SCS, or Swiss Society for the Study and Protection of Cetaceans, is a non-profit environmental organization dedicated to the conservation of oceans and endangered marine species.
The SCS is convinced that the implementation of effective conservation measures begins with a better scientific knowledge of the species in their natural environment. This principle is applied through its logistical missions at sea for environmental scientific research, its courses in marine biology, its ecology camps at sea and a scientific popularization of quality.
Founded in 1997, SCS has extensive experience in field logistics for the protection of the seas and oceans. It has thus become one of the main suppliers of ketological data in the north-western Mediterranean, as well as a recognized partner of Monaco’s environmental institutions (CIESM, ACCOBAMS, RAMOGE).
In addition, SCS is a member of IUCN, a partner of ACCOBAMS, a member of the MEDCET Science Network, and has been named Earth Champion.
The SCS application allows you to learn about different species of cetaceans.
