“When communities are treated as part of the solution rather than part of the problem, they are willing to take responsibility for conservation.” -Rob Horwich, Founder We believe that local people are the best stewards of their lands, and so we promote the highest level of participation on the part of the local community. We facilitate and encourage the formation of community-based organizations that empower local people to manage their own projects and lands with minimal outside influence. Community Conservation catalyzes, facilitates, and empowers local people to manage and conserve natural resources. Learn more about our projects at communityconservation.org.
