The project conserves wetlands in South Africa to address threats to the White-winged Flufftail and many other threatened wetland flora and fauna, using the bird as a flagship or ambassador species to gain support. This approach has demonstrated holistic and meaningful benefits not only for the White-winged Flufftail but also for the people who derive ecosystem services from high-elevation wetlands.

Our livestock seedbank project provides alternative livelihood option diverting communities from poaching to save the AGC.
