Conservation Wild

Conservation Wild is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to protecting biocultural diversity by conserving wildlife while supporting local and Indigenous communities around the world. Its approach brings Indigenous knowledge and ancestral understanding of nature into conservation planning, and includes local people in decisions that affect their communities and wildlife. The organization’s work spans protection of threatened and endangered species, conservation education and outreach, cultural preservation, reforestation, and community-based projects that support sustainable livelihoods. It also empowers women in communities, science, and conservation, collaborates with local grassroots organizations, and supports wildlife scientists and researchers.

Conservation Wild offers fieldwork expeditions that allow participants from diverse backgrounds and careers to experience frontline conservation firsthand. Through this work, the organization aims to connect conservation with culture and community needs, helping preserve both wildlife and the knowledge that supports its protection. Visitors can learn about its mission and projects, join an expedition, become a member, donate, or shop through its website.
