Conservation Force's participation in Communal-Based Natural Resources Management (CBNRM) in developing countries around the world is designed to give habitat value in its wild state through alternative uses that maintain that status. Our partnership with conservancies is a form of CBNRM and is also designed to expand and restore wild habitat.

Many of Conservation Force's easement holdings are on waterways and habitat bordering waterways.

Concern for human-wildlife conflict has increased in Africa in the last few years. The focus on conflict provides a different prospective for problem solving. The survival of ecosystems as a whole and wildlife in particular are vitally dependent upon the coexistence of local people with wildlife. The conflicts threaten the very existence of wildlife. Those conflicts take many forms. Three forms have recently been studied in the Masai Mara area of Kenya. They provide interesting insight to those that care about Africa, its people and its wildlife. more
