WHAT WE DO


A UNIQUE CONSERVATION APPROACH

THE GLOBAL PENGUIN SOCIETY (GPS) IS THE FIRST AND ONLY INTERNATIONAL
ORGANIZATION DEDICATED EXCLUSIVELY TO THE CONSERVATION OF THE WORLD’S 18 PENGUIN
SPECIES AND THEIR HABITATS.

Science

GPS improves scientific knowledge on critical aspects of the biology and ecology
of penguin species in order to guide conservation actions.


Current activities
Education

Fostering a “conservation culture” is our educational goal. By raising awareness
about penguins, we both involve and empower local communities and reach decision
makers.

Current activities
Management

GPS works closely with government, community officials and landowners to create
effective conservation policies to benefit not only penguins, but their entire
local ecosystems and nearby communities.

SUCCESS TO DATE

CLICK ON TEXT TO STOP

2009
GPS is founded by Pablo Garcia Borboroglu through his Pew Fellowship in Marine
Conservation, after recognizing the need to integrate conservation and research
efforts globally.
2010
Pablo receives the Whitley Award, which is instrumental to strengthen and expand
Global Penguin Society.
2011
GPS obtains a Wildlife Refuge designation for “El Pedral”, a small Magellanic
penguin colony in Argentina that GPS discovered in 2008. With this designation,
GPS secures the habitat for this penguin colony, allowing it to grow from 6 to
2,600 nests.
2012
GPS publishes our famous poster “Penguins of the World”, increasing visibility
and awareness of penguin conservation status.



2013
We publish the book: “Penguins: Natural History and Conservation”, involving 49
authors from 12 countries. It is recognized as a University of Washington Press
best seller.



2014
GPS helps establish the IUCN SSC Penguin Specialist Group, co-chaired by Dr.
Pablo García Borboroglu and Dr. Dee Boersma. The group includes 52 penguin
experts; it impacts critical global conservation issues, influences
international and national policy, and helps to assess all penguin species’
conservation status.
2015
GPS spearheads the creation of the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve “Blue Patagonia”.
This is the largest of this kind in Argentina (around 8 million acres, roughly
the size of Belgium) and has the highest biodiversity in Argentina. Blue
Patagonia protects 20 penguin colonies and 700 marine and terrestrial species.
2015
We join the United Nations Ocean Sanctuary Alliance Scientific Panel to help
justify scientifically the need to increase ocean conservation. The goal was to
include ocean protection as a Sustainable Development Goal in the UN Agenda
2030; this was accomplished when 193 countries approved the agenda.
2015
We publish our Educational Booklet “Mensajeros del Mar” (Messengers of the Sea),
distributed for free in five Spanish-speaking countries.



2016
GPS catalyzes the creation of the 250,000 acres Punta Tombo Marine Protected
Area in Patagonia Argentina. Punta Tombo protects the feeding area of over half
a million penguins, including one of the largest Magellanic penguin colonies in
the planet.
2016
The Spanish version of the Book “Pinguinos: Historia Natural y Conservación” is
awarded as the Best Book edited in Argentina by the Chamber of Publications.
2016
GPS is incorporated as one of the first marine partners of Wildlife Conservation
Network.
2017
6,000 students participate in our school trips to visit penguin colonies and
meet penguins for the first time. Thousands of kids benefit from the books GPS
donated to their schools.
2018
Our work is recognized by the WHITLEY GOLD AWARD and the NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC
Buffett Award for Leadership in Conservation presented to Dr. García Borboroglu.
2019
We received the ROLEX AWARD for ENTERPRISE to move forward our global
conservation mission.



2019
We partnered with Disneynature in the launching and promotion tour of their
movie "PENGUINS", sharing our conservation message to a massive global audience.
2020
To celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Earth Day, National Geographic and Disney
Conservation Fund featured our project in a compelling and inspiring video.
