Our Annual Report 2024 is out!

Dear friends, colleagues, partners,

As we bid farewell to 2024, let’s celebrate a year of remarkable achievements and transformative milestones. Together, we’ve advanced our efforts in Biodiversity Research and Monitoring, empowered communities through Sustainable Livelihoods, and strengthened Capacity Building programs. What we can be the most proud of is the support we have provided to communities, youth, our team members which has positively impacted their livelihoods, growth, skills—bringing us, collectively, closer to a brighter and more sustainable future.

As we confront the complex challenges of biodiversity conservation in 2025, our association is embracing a transformative approach: shifting from direct implementation to empowering civil society as the champions of environmental protection. While anti-poaching patrols and research have yielded critical successes, long-term conservation requires building a foundation of local stewardship. By investing in education, capacity-building, and sustainable livelihoods, we aim to equip civil society with the skills, knowledge, and resources to lead conservation efforts themselves. This shift ensures that the next generation of conservation practitioners emerges from within, fostering a deep sense of ownership, resilience, and lasting commitment to safeguarding their natural heritage. Therefore, from 2025, we will focus our efforts on Capacity Building in Laos. We invite our donors and partners to join us in this bold vision for sustainable impact.

I am pleased to share with all of you our Annual Report 2024.

Camille. January 2025.
