The Society is a non-governmental, non-political, non-profit making environmental organization which

Programmes: School and Community Conservation Education Programmes - the Society is committed to reaching
out to people wherever they are to educate them on environmental and wildlife
issues. It therefore carries out regular visits to schools and communities using talks, film and slide
shows, symposia, durbars and campaigns to get conservation messages across to people.
Training - the Society organizes a series of courses, training workshops and camps, particularly for
wildlife club members and leaders as well as wildlife managers from within and outside Ghana.
The training programmes are a conscious effort to create, develop and sustain the interest, love and
concern for the environment and wildlife and to build a network of wildlife management expertise
within Ghana.
