CEDO Celebrates 30 Years of Work in the Northern Gulf of California
'Sustainability' is the defining word for the 30th anniversary
celebration of CEDO. In 1980 CEDO opened its doors in Puerto Peñasco,
Sonora, with programs focusing on research and education.
In the last decade much attention has been given to conservation
and management of the Northern Gulf ecosystem.
The CEDO vision is that all residents and visitors to the Northern Gulf
understand,
appreciate and participate in sustainable activities and actions that
support a healthy,
thriving and productive ecosystem. Our method is to learn about the
region through
research, share the fruits of that research through educational
activities, and then
use this knowledge to bring people together to help protect this
ecosystem.

We invite you to join in these efforts. Classes and researchers from throughout
the US and Mexico continue to use CEDO’s biological field station for their studies.
CEDO is open to the public. You are invited to come by to admire the 55 ft. fin whale
skeleton display, the Earthship/tire house, or to enjoy a natural history talk or eco-adventure.
CEDO’s NaturArte eco-adventures combine nature, art, and culture and
contribute to local sustainable livelihoods and conservation of important habitats.
