The Omora Sub-Antarctic Research Alliance (OSARA) is a U.S.-based non-profit, charitable organization dedicated to "exploring the biocultural wonders of the Tierra del Fuego Archipelago". This goal is accomplished by promoting research, education and conservation with the understanding that social well-being and biological and cultural conservation are inextricably linked.
Since 2005, OSARA has taken the lead in linking international partners with local, regional and national institutions working on conservation in southern Patagonia. To achieve these goals, OSARA has worked with various partners, including the Center for Environmental Philosophy, the Institute of Ecology and Biodiversity and the University of Magallanes. Since 2010, more of its active projects have been associated with the Austral Center for Scientific Research, based in Ushuaia, Argentina.
