Our Approach

Wildlife is disappearing at an alarming rate across the globe. This is particularly the case for large carnivores, which require huge landscapes and abundant wild prey and habitat to meet their needs, including land relied on by local people and livestock. Where people and large carnivores overlap, carnivores impose significant costs for communities, mainly through attacks on livestock, which are vital economic and cultural assets. Conflict arises, and large carnivores are killed, wherever these costs outweigh the economic and cultural benefits from wildlife presence.
Our Pillars
We believe that positive value is developed through three interrelated areas of action:
We also believe that effective actions require accurate, locally contextualised knowledge. We help generate that knowledge and communicate it widely to improve conservation outcomes.
We are committed to developing community-based solutions to enable better coexistence between people and wildlife, particularly large carnivores. We integrate local knowledge and experience with world-class science to deliver effective, evidence-based conservation. Our collaborative, locally-driven approach allows us to create lasting solutions for both people and wildlife, helping support large, diverse landscapes.
