French Polar Institute (IPEV)

The French Polar Institute (IPEV) is a scientific research organization focused on studying polar regions, including Antarctica and the Arctic. Established in 1992, it coordinates and supports French scientific missions in these areas, fostering research in various fields such as climate change, geology, and biology. The IPEV collaborates with international partners and provides logistical support, ensuring scientists have the resources and facilities needed to conduct their work in harsh environments. Its goal is to advance our understanding of polar ecosystems and their global significance, particularly in the context of climate change and environmental issues.
