Mission and Program Overview

Mission

See Sch O

We are a science-based organization that uses photography to discover, document and share the overlooked and disappearing life in places with high and at-risk biodiversity. Through our outreach programs we empower international citizen scientists to become stewards of their local ecosystems. Our goal is to help people, governments and organizations make informed decisions that will keep intact their local wild lands.

DescriptionGrantsExpenses
FIELD RESEARCH Many volunteer participants in western Ecuador assisted in collecting data on hundreds of animals, including several new species. The participants took thousands of data points, which continue to be analyzed to produce and disseminate information to managers to make informed conservation decisions.Results were reported to the Ecuadorian government and are also reported at www.BiodiversityGroup.org. Photographs and information on new and rare species were shared via our website and outreach programs.$370$8,382
Biodiversity 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.$0$6,542
Managed, analyzed, and published data and images for management recommendations and publications.$0$3,945

ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt0We experienced a temporary budgetary shortfall due to a donation pledge coming in late. We thus did not have funds for professional preparation and thus the Executive Director had to assemble accounting and learn the 990 system. This filing has been completed on the earliest possible date for our capacity.
