SeyCCAT - The Seychelles Conservation and Climate Adaptation Trust - We strategically invest in ocean stakeholders to generate new learning, bold action and sustainable blue prosperity in Seychelles.

Welcome to SeyCCAT

Seychelles Conservation and Climate Adaptation Trust (SeyCCAT) strategically invests in ocean stakeholders to generate new learning, bold action and sustainable blue prosperity in Seychelles. SeyCCAT is more than a project donor. It is not just what we do that is important to us, it is how we do it that matters too. We envision for Seychelles’ ocean and islands to be stewarded by the people of Seychelles, generating sustainable benefits for future generations to share. We create the space for new ideas, help those ideas evolve, forge new creative collaborations, and boost individual and collective impact.
