Programme

Protect

A peaceful co-existence

Conservation hospitality unlocks resources to reduce human-wildlife conflict and to protect habitats from human impact.

Protecting people and wildlife from each other

Our protection programmes ultimately aim to protect both people and wildlife from threats to their shared existence. Rapid population growth, encroaching development and exploitative extraction of Earth’s natural assets are significant risks to the world’s flora and fauna. And it's our goal to create a collaborative ecosystem that combines collective resources to combat these processes, protecting wildlife, many of which are endangered.
