WHO WE ARE

nl vlagWe are Sealcentre Pieterburen, one of the oldest and best seal rehabilitation centres in the world. On our campus and field station live and work volunteers and researchers from all over the world. By our collective passion and multidisciplinary approach we form a learning community. We transfer our passion to the public and make them aware of our mission.

OUR MISSION

We believe in a
healthy seal, 
the indicator for
a healthy sea.

OUR WORK

For years we have a passion and take care for the seal, including its environment. A clean and healthy Wadden Sea is very dear to us. This unique piece of nature has the title 'World heritage' and we should treat it accordingly; for now, for later and for our children. This puts a great responsibility on as human beings and as a social enterprise. The role of the seal is crucial; it is the indicator of a clean sea. We measure, monitor, rehabilitate and share our knowledge. To keep both the seal and its habitat healthy and to offer our knowledge and expertise internationally. So that can be used worldwide and contribute to a better (marine) world.

OUR VALUES

  • Create a community / family feeling to encourage collaboration and engagement.
  • Use authority, knowledge and science as a guide to management and conservation.
  • Be flexible and pragmatic to quickly provide help to seals in distress.
  • Take passion as the basis for an authentic, honest and personal story.
