Our Vision
Thriving populations of wild species providing diverse and equitable benefits (tangible and intangible) to people, who are, in turn, motivated and empowered to protect and conserve them.
Our Mission
To build global understanding of the importance of sustainable use of wild species, both for nature and for people, and to guide sound decision-making by generating and disseminating high quality, evidence-based information, tools and advice, that enhance legal, sustainable, equitable wildlife management practices and draw attention to those that are illegal, unsustainable and inequitable.
