Africa’s rural people are on the frontlines of climate change, despite contributing least to the crisis. For them, nature-based solutions aren’t just a theory, they’re their most viable defence against climate shocks.
For too long, conservation has excluded the very people it should serve. We’re here to help change that story. The Conserve approach is to keep ecosystems intact and productive while helping communities adapt and thrive through nature-led approaches to resilience and development.
A world where nature conserves us.
To conserve large wildscapes by forging solutions with local communities.
Bringing skilled teams, long-term resources, and partnership mindsets to places where conservation is urgent and personal.
We act as a service provider to the communities who live in and depend
on these landscapes.
We build strong local organisations that deliver conservation and livelihood services to benefit people and nature.
We focus on the savanna biome–Africa’s food basket and biodiversity heartland–as healthy ecosystems serve both people and nature.
A guiding framework that charts how we work with communities to build lasting, locally-led conservation. It shows the strategies and principles that help turn wildscapes into places of resilience–where nature is protected, and people can prosper. because of it.
Conserve is empowering the rightful stewards, the people, to take charge of conservation once again.

A practical tool that brings our theory of change to life. The maturity tracker allows us to understand where each project stands across five essential elements of our model, and to track progress through five key stages: listening to understand, establishing enabling conditions, implementing programmes, achieving outcomes, and delivering impact. This tracker now serves as a shared language across our teams, helping us reflect, learn, and plan with greater clarity and confidence.
