The mission of the D.N. Batten Foundation is to support a more Climate safe world and inspire collective stewardship of our Earth. The foundation believes that for humans to thrive, we must all nurture the natural habitats in which we live and the species with which we share the planet. The D.N. Batten Foundation’s partnership with AWF seeks to combat cyber trafficking of wildlife products, protect Africa’s threatened wildlife, remarkable habitats, and local communities around wildlife corridors in critical landscapes in Africa. Over the past six years, the D.N. Batten Foundation has invested in the protection of the iconic African elephant in the Democratic Republic of Congo, the transboundary Tsavo-Mkomazi landscape in Tanzania and Kenya, the lower Zambezi landscape in Zimbabwe, and Manyara Ranch in Tanzania, which is located in a critical wildlife migration corridor.
