Conservation corridors are among the best strategies for saving biodiversity and improving human well-being. Connecting biodiversity and human needs for sustainable and science-based decisions will likely improve the conditions of our planet.
Aim of the project is to research the kingdom of fungi and to find out their vital importance in the natural world, to create herbarium and collection of the fixed fungi-macromycetes.
Our community challenges are access to clean energy, poor nutrition, unsafe domestic water and climate variability. Our passion is to promote sustainable livelihoods and health of communities by promoting nature conservation and restoration of degraded natural resources; forests and lake shores.
We promote growing traditional rice free from agrochemicals in Sri Lanka. We encourage farmers to save this rice for family consumption and save seeds for next season. We collaborate with Farm organization to strengthen their management capacity by providing funds to repair ancient reservoir.
Kenya's lions could be extinct in the next two decades, largely due to habitat loss and conflict with humans over livestock depredation. The Ewaso Lions project conserves northern Kenya’s remaining lions by promoting coexistence between people and wildlife. Since 2007, this coexistence has been achieved through community-based conservation programs, which engage Samburu warriors, women, elders, and youth in activities that benefit human livelihoods while also conserving wildlife and protecting habitat.
Habitat loss is one of the greatest threats to biodiversity and wildlife. Make it Wild inspires people to take action for biodiversity in their local community and create areas for wildlife in gardens, green spaces and derelict areas - making a difference for biodiversity both locally and globally.
Proyecto Titi is a non-proft organization that is dedicated to protecting the critically-endangered cotton-top tamarin and its forest habitat in northern Colombia. They carry out a comprehensive conservation program that includes innovative research, community outreach programs (including alternative income and recycling initiatives) and an education program that has been formally adopted as the official environmental education curriculum in several local municipalities.
The Dorsal Effect aims to conserve sharks by providing alternative livelihood to exploited shark fishermen in the trade. With more viable and equitable income from alternative livelihood income streams like eco tourism, shark fishermen can then be steered away from shark hunting.
