mission and strategy

Mission

The mission of the Amazon Conservation Association is to conserve the biological diversity of the Amazon Basin.

Vision

The Amazon Conservation Association envisions a network of state, community, and private lands managed for conservation and sustainable resource use so that the biological diversity of the southwest Amazon basin is conserved.

We strive to establish partnerships with governments, local communities and other conservation organizations to develop innovative conservation tools that will expand the amount of protected land in the region. Our actions are informed by scientific research and designed to achieve concrete and measurable outcomes. We are committed to concentrating our resources and capabilities in the field, where they have the largest conservation impact. We believe that longterm conservation is best ensured by active and informed participation of local stakeholders, and we collaborate with forest users who seek to improve their resource management practices. more>>
