Want to make a positive difference to improve the income generation of the local honey producing communities in the future.
Wild honey is one of the most important NTFPs which may increase the
incomes and employment of low-income people in and around forests while
preserving the ecological sustainability of the resources. The supported
honey groups have bought the honey from their groups’ members for
selling to buyers; and they have also shared the net profit to their
members, contributed for conservation and improved the groups’ business.
For example, the honey groups have significantly increased their
contribution, which is generated from their annual net profit, for
conservation activities from USD 208 in 2017 to USD 443 in 2018
respectively.
What we do
We are an independent conservation organization, striving to sustain the
natural world for the benefit of people and wildlife. From individuals
and communities to business and government, we are part of a growing
coalition calling on world leaders to set nature on the path to recovery
by 2030. Together, we seek to protect and restore natural habitats,
stop the mass extinction of wildlife, and make the way we produce and
consume sustainable.
