About [Edit]
African Conservation Fund: A different approach
Many of us feel a passion for Africa and her wildlife and people. And with passion comes a desire to protect. That is why a small group of us—East Africans, Americans, and Britons—founded the African Conservation Fund in 2003, to support the efforts and partners of the African Conservation Centre in Nairobi. The Centre is a 12-year-old East African institution, founded and run by a small team of dedicated Africans who combine sound scientific research with targeted longterm community-based conservation projects.
What We Do
African Conservation Centre and African Conservation Fund assist communities in East Africa in creating economic opportunities that result in improved wildlife management and wealthier, healthier communities - like the Samburu community (three warrior members shown at left) at Il'Ngwesi, who created a community-owned ecotourism lodge in north-central Kenya with the initial assistance of African Conservation Centre.
How We’re Different
|
African Conservation Fund provides the bridge between community-based conservation efforts in East Africa to capacity-building resources in the U.S. and beyond. |
 |
There is no mid-level organization whose sole program is to provide usable resources—grants, loans, training, exchanges, and communications products—directly to and for the benefit of communities, with the end goal being widescale, sustainable, locally based, and independent conservation of important regions and wildlife.
Working closely with African Conservation Centre, we support communities in high-biodiversity regions, assisting those that have the willingness and social-capacity to create new and lasting conservation projects.

Dear Sir/Me
We write to introduce the African Peace and Democratic Institute (APDI) concept and search for collaborations, affiliations and contributions from like minded Foundations, institutions and individuals worldwide towards the implementation of the project in Cameroon that will stimulate development and economic growth within the continent by providing the much need foundation of Peace and stability through professional Training and technical support to Non governmental organisations, local governments and individuals in Africa. Why the African Peace and Democratic Institute? The African Peace and Democratic Institute project is coming as a result of several years of working experience and observations made as concerns poverty alleviation struggle in Africa. The project was originally conceived as a Development Resource Centre supporting development in Cameroon since 2002. It has since grown in the number of programs it offers. The number of persons seeking our programs, the number of volunteers working for the project and the realistic impact of the program to our local development drive has created the need for an expansion and restructuring to support a bigger number of Africans seeking to under training in Peace building, conflict management and development studies. Limited by space and funds, we started a campaign in 2004 to expand the program to an African Peace and Democratic Institute (APDI) to support Peace, Democracy and Development effort across the continent by providing skill training, networking, thereby promoting an acceptable and conducive environment for the work of national and international development partners to have lasting and sustainable impact in the continent. Dear sir/Me, we will be pleased if you will find ways we can collaborate with your good organisations towards the realisation of this project Hope to read from you again sincerely Tanyi Christian Co-Founder E-mail: ceo@lukmefcameroon.org www.lukmefcameroon.org |
