GREAT APES & GIBBONS PROGRAM
We work to improve respect for and recognition of the intrinsic value of nonhuman apes; reduce and ultimately eliminate captivity as a reality for the world’s apes while improving their care and treatment where they are held in captivity; reconcile socioeconomic development and conservation in the landscapes where great apes and gibbons live; build an integrated and coordinated ape conservation movement; and grow recognition and consideration of great apes and gibbons in larger, adjacent conservation movements.

Social Justice Program
We work in regions where we believe we can have the greatest impact with our finite resources. We focus on advancing policy, protections, and social changes to ensure the physical safety, acceptance, and inclusion of those most marginalized because of their sexual orientation, gender identity, or the intersection of these with their age or status as people of color.
