Who we are

Advocates for Biodiversity Conservation was conceived in 2015. The idea to formalize the concept was born out of a meeting of nature lovers who wanted to contribute to mitigating environmental degradation without compromising the livelihoods and well-being of humankind.

 

In November 2018, the initial group sold the idea to a larger group which resulted in the incorporation of ABC and its legal registration with the Registrar General’s Department of Ghana.

 

ABC has seen tremendous growth in its programs and impact on people, their communities, and the natural resources around them. ABC drives its activities through partnerships and collaborations with other CSOs, local communities, their leaders, the government, and the private sector. This allows the programs of ABC to achieve a more significant impact than if these partners worked independently.

 

With our feet firmly rooted in the ground and our heads up in the skies we are able to translate ideas and concepts into groundbreaking actions targeted at changing the lives of local people, policies at the national level, and the way businesses operate. Through this approach, ABC is able to share best practices and lessons learned and coordinate activities with partners, collaborators, and donors.
