Protecting People & Mountain Gorillas

“Receiving this grant from the Adventure Travel Conservation Fund will enable us to strengthen our education campaign that is reducing zoonotic disease transmission between people and gorillas and bringing about desired behavior change through a community-driven One Health model at Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. We are very excited to receive this funding, which will improve the protection of almost half (43%) of the world’s endangered mountain gorillas by improving the health of their human neighbours through our work at Conservation Through Public Health (CTPH). Thank you so much for all the great support.”

Dr Gladys Kalema-Zikusoka, CTPH Founder and CEO
