Archipelagos is involved in a wide variety of research projects and environmental conservation initiatives. These require interdisciplinary work in fields ranging from zoological study and fisheries management to laboratory analyses for the detection of pollutants and the creation of a seed bank for local, endemic agricultural plant varieties.
The work and contribution of scientists specializing in different areas of study as well as the cooperation with universities and research institutes from Greece and abroad have been invaluable to Archipelagos.
