Earthwatch has helped thousands of people to change their lives, and our planet. Explore our world of inspirational, hands-on research.

This free, interactive app showcases more than 40 years of fantastic stories from extraordinary people: the students who worked with Costa Rican coffee farmers; the volunteer who had a dinosaur named after him; the team that helped establish a hippo sanctuary in Ghana; the numerous businesses that have improved employee commitment and become more sustainable.
