Five ongoing field programmes uniting veterinary medicine, species protection, and community empowerment across our landscapes. For the studies, data and findings behind them, see Research & Conservation Projects.
Non-invasive clinical surveillance and gastrointestinal helminth research across habituated gorilla groups, including daily health logs and diagnostic sampling, alongside waterborne disease monitoring at the human–livestock–gorilla interface.
Rescue and rehabilitation of white-bellied and giant pangolins recovered from hunters and traders across the Budongo–Mukihani forest corridor. About ten pangolins have been rescued so far, several returned to the wild, with former hunters brought in as partners to remove snares and monitor for threats.
Ecological monitoring across the Budongo forest landscape, tracking tree phenology alongside chimpanzee behaviour, amphibians and birds, grounding every species programme in the health of the habitat itself.
Grassroots outreach and conservation awareness, human–wildlife conflict resolution, and training across our landscapes, strengthening the relationships between communities and the park authorities they live beside.
Our poverty-graduation programme gives 40 households and 15 former hunters livestock as a starting asset, mentoring them in animal health and closed-loop farming so the asset lasts, an alternative to poaching that actually holds.
