Mission
The Red Panda Network is committed to protecting the red panda and preserving its habitat through the empowerment of local communities by adaptive community-based research, education, and sustainable development. We also employ locals as forest guardians, the first known organization to practice community-based monitoring.
Vision
The Red Panda Network ensures the survival of the red panda and its habitat for future generations to study, experience and enjoy.
The Need
The red panda and its habitat are endangered due to conversion of forest to farms and pastures through overgrazing. The Red Panda Network creates innovative alternatives that increase the probability of survival of the red panda.
The Red Panda Network is a project of the Earth Island Institute (EII)
