Blog update 3/1-3/8

International Women's Day
AWF fully supports the importance of women in conservation and all other areas of society.
last year in Uganda AWF launched a Women in Conservation project
The conservation sector has been male-dominated for quite some time and because of that , at a disadvantage
Women provide a different persepctive, and are responsible for a more nurturing connection with the environment and its species that inhibit it.
women are innate conservationists

"Women have not only collected and consumed what grows in nature but they have made things grow."
-Maria Miles

SO.... AWF's Uganda team is continuing its Women in Conservation program... focusing on 5 senior female conservationists, with the newly facilitated establishment of the Women in Conservation Working Group
