Our mission

Mission

The seal is the sign of a healthy sea. This is why everything we do contributes to the health of seals and their living environment. It starts close by, at our centre and in the UNESCO World Heritage Wadden Sea, but it extends far beyond. The seal, the sea and humans: it is all about shared health. Based on this conviction, we make people aware of their relationship with nature. We do not stop there. We are committed to the continual improvement of this relationship. Now and in the future.

"We believe in a healthy seal, the indicator for a healthy sea."

Vision

We are a learning community. Our centre is a workshop of the Wadden region; a workshop that revolves around research, new insights and sharing our knowledge. We favour practical measures to involve people in our mission with activities, exhibitions and experiences. In this way, we will inspire and activate as many people as possible to contribute to a sustainable and healthy Wadden Sea.
