BLAKE Expeditions

BLAKE Expeditions offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for alumni of BLAKE Inspire, BLAKE Inspire for Sailors and BLAKE Inspire for Teachers to join a team exploring remote and environmentally significant areas across Aotearoa. Participants engage in real-life scientific research and learn from world-class scientists and environmental leaders.

Exploration leads to revelation. Through BLAKE Expeditions, participants not only gain the rare chance to venture into hard-to-reach landscapes but also contribute to scientific understanding and conservation efforts, helping to uncover and protect our planet’s environmental pulse points. These experiences are then brought back to communities across Aotearoa, where participants share their knowledge and inspire others to take action in preserving our environment.

Previous expeditions are listed below. Explore these journeys to see what our participants have experienced and the significant contributions they’ve made to scientific research and environmental conservation.
