Wildlife Conservation Network

The spirit of innovation in conservation

	Where We Work The Wildlife Conservation Network (WCN) partners with and supports wildlife projects around the world. WCN identifies and selects new Partners through a highly competitive application process. All of our Partners are independent and innovative field-based conservationists. They work in cooperation with local communities to develop new strategies for saving endangered wildlife and their habitats. Their awe-inspiring courage and spirit of innovation are the true hallmarks of their success.

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.
