THE TROPICAL CONSERVATION FUND

  • Biodiversity assessments​
  • Support of local ecotourism
  • Wildlife infectious disease studies
  • Field-based conservation biology research 
  • Promotion of alternative livelihoods 
  • Support of carbon-offset program in southeast Peru
  • Community based environmental education

Environmental Education

We are currently working in the Las Piedras watershed in the Peruvian Amazon to conduct environmental education projects with children in indigenous communities. Our projects include wildlife camera trapping and identification of animals, stream ecology and water science projects, and tree and plant identification in the communities of Lucerna and Boca Pariamanu.
