Captain Darwin – charting our changing planet

Four years into their expedition, this international team is documenting changes in global biodiversity—sailing through French Polynesia’s reefs, Patagonia’s icefields, and the Galápagos Islands’ unique habitats.

Now docked in New Zealand, they’re partnering on a kiwi translocation effort from Rotoroa to Motutapu. Explorer and captain, Victor Rault, will share insights from their journey, stories of resilience and change in the natural world, and reflections on conservation in the 21st century. This is an inspiring opportunity for anyone passionate about nature, science, and global collaboration.
