The Indo-Pacific Conservation Alliance (IPCA) is dedicated to the study and conservation of the native ecosystems of the tropical Indo-Pacific region and support for traditional peoples in their stewardship of these globally significant natural resources. Our current field projects are located in Indonesia and New Guinea. Our main program is with the Asmat community of southwestern Papua, Indonesia, in the lowlands of Lorentz National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the largest and most diverse protected area in the Asia-Pacific Region. Our conservation successes include halting destructive commercial logging and fishing operations. IPCA is based at the Bishop Museum in Honolulu, Hawaii. Rather than establish in-country offices, which is both expensive and unnecessary, we work with and through local partners to minimize overhead costs and put financial resources into the field where it is urgently needed. IPCA was formed in 1998 in collaborative association with scientists from the Smithsonian Institution, Bishop Museum, and other leading scientific and conservation organizations. Our projects are science-based and driven by our desire to work in authentic collaboration with indigenous communities, in-country scientists, local conservation groups, and other stakeholders. Our geographic focus is on the tropical Indo-Pacific region, a vast area that includes Indonesia, Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia -- by far the most biologically and culturally diverse area of the planet.

We are working for a day when Kentuckians and all people enjoy a better quality of life. When the lives of people and communities matter before profits. When our communities have good jobs that support our families without doing damage to the water, air and land. When companies and the wealthy pay their share of taxes and can't buy elections. When all people have health care, shelter, food, education, clean water and other basic needs. When children are listened to and valued. When discrimination is wiped out of our laws, habits and hearts. And when the voices of ordinary people are heard and respected in our democracy.
