About the OUEC - OUEC exists to inspire, encourage and assist exploration within the University of Oxford. It’s something we’ve been doing for over 75 years, making us the oldest such Club in the world. To this day the Club leads expeditions that push back the boundaries of our knowledge about the world around us.Our members have now travelled to virtually every region of the world—yet there is still much to discover! Recent expeditions to Svalbard, Bolivia, Nepal, Madagascar, Papua New Guinea and Namibia have found new species of birds, insects and plants and assisted local people through a range of practical projects.The OUEC provides all the vital support needed for these expeditions – from equipment, experience and knowledge, to encouragement for all those participating. We look forward to helping you with your expedition!
