The African Wildlife Foundation (AWF) is the leading international conservation organization focused solely on Africa.

Who better to protect their land and resources than Africans themselves? Living on the land we strive to protect, Africans are in touch with both its potential and its challenges. They have witnessed the draw of tourists to their land. And, they have come face-to-face with the sometimes destructive consequences of sharing land with Africa’s wildlife.

Empowering Africans to be Africa’s stewards is at the core of our strategy. And, we begin right here at AWF. More than 85 percent of our staff are African.
