“Environmental threats, including animal trafficking, economic land concessions for agro-industrial plantations and mining, and community encroachment on forestland. Wildlife alliance, founded in 1994 originally as the global survival network, is an international 501(c)(3) non-profit organization headquartered in new york city with current in-country programs in cambodia and completed projects in thailand, myanmar, india, ecuador and russia. Wildlife alliance's cambodia conservation project began in 2000 to assist the royal government of cambodia in managing its tropical forests, protecting its wildlife, and helping poor forest dependent communities develop alternative livelihoods. From successfully overturning massive industrial attempts to turn rainforest into mining and agriculture operations, to rescuing illegally trafficked wildlife, to developing sustainable livelihoods for landless, rural families, our comprehensive conservation programs deliver results that benefit wildlife, ecosystems and communities. Through integrated forest management, law enforcement, policy reform, sustainable livelihoods, wildlife rehabilitation, habitat protection and environmental education, wildlife alliance has preserved more than 880,000 hectares of forest, overturned 36 industrial concessions that threatened large mammal habitats and migratory corridors, provided sustainable livelihoods to over 5,000 people, delivered our environmental education program to more than 200,000 students and community members, and rescued over 61,000 live animals from traffickers and poachers. Our model is built upon a foundation of actively engaging government at all levels and partnering with government agencies to (1) stop unsustainable use of natural resources, (2) enforce environmental and social laws, (3) monitor natural resource management to ensure good governance, (4) conduct public outreach to build awareness among school children, teachers and community adults. This is reinforced through on-site technical assistance to communities and local government. Each of our eight field programs addresses an element of the crisis of conservation that is facing southeast asian countries. Our law enforcement programs feed into our rehabilitation and care programs; our livelihoods programs ensure a sustainable change in income generation and behavior; and our education and outreach programs create an atmosphere and attitude of conservation.”
