Protecting tropical biodiversity through research and education
We are inspiring and empowering the next generation of conservation scientists
COTERC (Canadian Organization for Tropical Education and Rainforest Conservation) is a non-profit based in Canada contributing to tropical research and education through our field station in Costa Rica.
We provide immersive learning experiences
We’ve been helping young conservation scientists develop an appreciation and comprehension of tropical ecosystems since 1991.
We provide an immersive, hands-on experience to visitors at our research station in Tortuguero, Costa Rica — exposing them to one of the world’s most biodiverse ecosystems and giving them confidence to collect, analyse, and interpret data.
We’re always looking to partner with likeminded donors and businesses across the world
