THREE KEY FOCUS AREAS ARE: 1) OUTREACH: THE COMMUNITIES SURROUNDING PROTECTING WILDLIFE AREAS IN AFRICA ARE KEY STAKEHOLDERS IN CONSERVATION. THE WORK THAT WE SUPPORT AIMS TO HELP COMMUNITIES THRIVE BOTH SOCIALLY AND ECONOMICALLY WHILE LIVING IN HARMONY WITH THE SURROUNDING WILDERNESS AREAS. NEARLY ALL OF OUR WORK IS CAPACITY-BUILDING VS. RELIEF WORK. 2) ANTI-POACHING: WILDLIFE IS UNDER CONSTANT THREAT OF POACHING FOR COMMERCIAL BUSHMEAT, HABITAT ENCROACHMENT, CHARCOAL EXTRACTION AND THE ILLEGAL TRADE OF WILDLIFE CONTRABAND SUCH AS IVORY AND RHINO HORN. TO COMBAT THESE ECOSYSTEM THREATS WE SUPPORT ANTI-POACHING EFFORTS THAT COMBINE CUTTING-EDGE TECHNOLOGY WITH BOOTS ON THE GROUND. 3) CONSERVATION: CONSERVATION MANAGEMENT ENCOMPASSES AN ARRAY OF ACTIVITIES FROM TREATING WOUNDED WILDLIFE TO MANAGING FIRES AND REMOVING INVASIVE ALIEN PLANTS IN ORDER TO ALLOW THE LANDSCAPE AND ITS FLORA AND FAUNA TO FLOURISH. ACCF SUPPORTS PROJECTS RANGING FROM MANAGING WILDFIRES AND REDUCING THE IMPACT OF INVASIVE ALIEN PLANTS TO THE RE-INTRODUCTIONS OF LOCALLY EXTINCT ANIMAL SPECIES.
