Global programs
As human populations grow, wildlife and wild places are increasingly under threat.
From 2013 to 2019, Zoos Victoria provided 24 Conservation Grants to projects around the world. From small Alligator Lizards in Guatemala and tiny bats in Armenia to Snow Leopards in Nepal and Cheetahs in Botswana, our grant program has helped both people and threatened wildlife since 2013. Due to the impacts of the Coronavirus (COVID-19), our grants program is currently on hold.
Partnerships
We are proud to partner with six conservation organisations, each committed to wildlife conservation on the frontline:
- Fauna and Flora, Vietnam
- Mabuwaya Foundation, Philippines
- Société d'Ornithologie de Polynésie, Marquesas Islands
- Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund, Rwanda
- Tree-kangaroo Conservation Program, Papua New Guinea
- International Elephant Project, Indonesia
Sister Zoos
We're working with our two international Sister Zoos to help them become accredited in their standards of animal welfare:
- Port Moresby Nature Park, Papua New Guinea
- Uganda Wildlife Education Centre, Uganda
Conservation Grants
Every year Zoos Victoria gives out a number of Conservation Grants. From small Alligator Lizards in Guatemala to Snow Leopards in Nepal and Pakistan, our grants have helped both people and threatened wildlife since 2013. Due to the impacts of the Coronavirus (COVID-19), we will not be awarding grants for 2023/24.
