Biosphere Foundation is a USA 501 (c) 3 organization founded in 1991 for research and education; it owns a limited liability company (PT Biosphere Stewardship Center) in Bali Indonesia and has a partnership with Yayasan Biosfir Indonesia (Jakarta) to carryout nature stewardship projects in Bali Barat National Park with the Ministry of Forestry and Environment.
We work in Bali at our Biosphere Stewardship Center and onboard MIR, our 113’ sailing vessel that is our flagship in the Coral Triangle region of Indonesia. Our programs are useful to all people and provide knowledge and skills to practice becoming a champion of our earth’s biosphere.
The Foundation is led by Abigail Alling and Mark Van Thillo, two of the ‘Biospherians’ who lived for 2 years (1991-1993) in Biosphere 2, a laboratory for the study of global ecology; and navigated by an international board of advisors.
