Tour du Valat (A research institute for the conservation of Mediterranean wetlands)
Founded more than 50 years ago by Luc Hoffmann, the Tour du Valat has since then developed its research activities for the conservation of Mediterranean wetlands with a major focus :« Better understanding of wetlands for better management ». Convinced that it will only be possible to preserve wetlands if human activities and the protection of the natural heritage can be reconciled,
the Tour du Valat has for many years been developing programmes of research and integrated management that promote interchanges between wetland users and scientists.
