Description
The aim of this goal is to reduce threats to apes in their natural habitat from unsustainable and often inequitable exploitation of natural resources, land and forest degradation and destruction for industrial scale agriculture, extractive industries, infrastructure development, hunting, illegal trade and the concomitant risk of disease transmission from humans. We work with our partners to address the multifaceted drivers of conservation threats, develop locally appropriate solutions, and monitor and assess impact while recognizing the interconnected and interdependent role played by sanctuaries within and around the priority landscapes. For captive apes in range states, the foundation focuses on sanctuaries that take steps to prevent breeding, provide lifelong care and rehabilitation for apes, and, when possible and appropriate, return residents back to their natural habitats. Program goals: 1. Reconcile conservation and development 2. Build effective conservation movement 3. Increase respect for apes
