IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Biodiversity P.E.E.K. (Photography Educating and Empowering Kids), The Biodiversity Group's outreach program, was successfully implemented this year. Many individuals in two communities in Ecuador, near reserves in which we conduct field research, are now using photography to help discover, document, share, and preserve the dwindling wild life that surrounds their communities. The trained, adult mentors are paid for their work and more children are joining the program where they live. Additionally, many other conservation organizations as well as several other reserves in Ecuador, and beyond (such as Vietnam) are asking to have a Biodiversity PEEK program started in their areas.
