Wildlife Conservation Network (WCN) works with conservation organizations at two levels:

WCN Associates

WCN Associates are organizations that are committed to animal conservation or welfare. Associates receive a free table/space at WCN's annual Wildlife Conservation Expo, as well as access to WCN's network. Any organization that meets WCN's basic criteria is eligible to be accepted as an Associate. More

WCN Partners

WCN Partners are field-based wildlife conservation organizations that gain Partner status through a highly competitive process. Partners will be featured presenters at WCN's annual Wildlife Conservation Expo. They also receive extensive help in fundraising with a guaranteed minimum of $20,000 per year. Partner status is reviewed annually by the WCN board. WCN Partner status is extremely competitive due to a limited number of available spaces. We recognize that there are many worthy groups that meet our criteria, however we can accommodate only a small number each year.

WCN Supports Two
Emerging Wildlife Conservation Leaders
The future looks brighter for wildlife thanks to the Emerging Wildlife Conservation Leaders (EWCL) program, which trains the next generation of conservation leaders. Each year WCN sponsors two participants from its international network to participate in EWCL. This April, two young men from Kenya, Peter Lalampaa of Grevy’s Zebra Trust and Jerenimo Lepirei of Save the Elephants, will travel to the U.S. to seize this opportunity. Following a highly competitive application process, EWCL brings together twenty new, emerging leaders in the wildlife conservation field for capacity-building and intense training. By nurturing future leaders, exchanging ideas, and generating tangible conservation products as part of a group campaign exercise, EWCL significantly benefits wildlife conservation around the world.
