What is Space for Life?

Together, the Biodôme, Biosphère, Insectarium, Jardin botanique and Planétarium Rio Tinto Alcan form a place where nature and science are honoured, a Space for Life. It's a participatory movement in which communities here and elsewhere are invited to participate. And it's also a commitment to protect our planet's biodiversity.
