Wildlife Conservation Network |
|
|
Wildlife Conservation Network is dedicated to the support of conservation entrepreneurs who are working actively with local communities to protect endangered flagship species and preserve their natural habitats. They focus on innovative, independent conservationists who are exploring new ways to resolve the conflicts between people and wildlife, and actively engage local people as effective stewards of their environment. WCN provides conservation entrepreneurs with the financial, technical and administrative support that makes their work more efficient, effective and successful.
One person with passion and a vision can make a profound difference. WCN believes in giving these individuals—the conservation entrepreneurs—the tools and support they need to be successful. And then steps back and let them do their job.
WCN knows that the real work of conservation is done in the field. They rely heavily on volunteers and external underwriting so they can guarantee that 100% of designated donations goes directly to the specified project in the field, where it will have the greatest impact.
WCN partners with organizations that bring the best people, strategies and technologies to the campaign to conserve wildlife. They focus on key "indicator species" where success requires that they have preserved a sustainable, diverse ecosystem.
WCN believes that conservation works when local people implement local solutions. The best local solutions benefit people, wildlife and the environment. They build conservation capacity by engaging and training in these communities to ensure that the skills and conservation culture will be passed on to future generations. |
