Our Integrated Approach

Strategies

Ensuring Good Governance

We embed community agency into decision-making processes about wildlife and habitats, with the ultimate goal of communities driving priorities within a landscape. By establishing community-led, rights-based governance systems, we support communities to thrive alongside wildlife.

Supporting Resilient People

We prevent and respond to human-wildlife conflict, create capacity and investment for sustainable livelihoods, and nurture new businesses that generate income in a conservation-friendly way.

Building Resilient Ecosystems

For conservation to succeed, people and wildlife must coexist harmoniously across shared ecosystems. We negotiate space for wildlife and people through land-use planning, and we work with communities and protected-area authorities to restore and manage essential habitats for wildlife.
