02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
GRI is established with a simple mission: 'To Save Wildlife & Wild Spaces'. We do this by empowering the men and women (the Rangers) tasked with protecting nature, whilst also supporting the local communities living contiguous to it, to have a greater awareness and appreciation of the value of wildlife conservation and the tangible and sustainable benefits that it can bring to them. Our frontline work is delivered in Zambia via an holistic approach to conservation which includes: Nature Protection, Wildlife Rescue, Community Outreach and Research. Wherever possible, we use science and data to inform management decisions on the ground.
