Organizational Background:
WCS stands for wildlife and wild places. As the world's premier wildlife conservation organization, WCS has a long track record of achieving innovative, impactful results at scale. We run programs spanning the entire ocean and more than 3 million biologically critical square miles in nearly 60 countries.  We build on a unique foundation: Our reach is global; we discover through best-in-class science; we protect through work on the ground with local and indigenous people; we inspire through our world-class zoos, aquarium, and education programs; and we leverage our resources through partnerships and powerful policy influence.  Our 4,000 diverse, passionately committed team members in New York City and around the world work collectively to achieve our conservation mission.
Regional Overview:
The Central Africa and Gulf of Guinea program is one of the largest of WCS's 13 Global Regional Programs, spanning Democratic Republic of Congo, Republic of Congo, and Gabon. This is a rapidly growing program with a diverse and expanding portfolio of donors, partners and projects. The region presents a set of complex conservation challenges to biodiversity and their habitats and WCS field programs are addressing these through a number of initiatives including protected area management, community engagement, sustainable livelihoods, policy reform and sustainable financing. WCS recently formally established its regional hub in Kigali, Rwanda which hosts a growing team of technical specialists and regional management to support our country programs and field offices.
Congo Program Overview:
WCS is the largest international conservation Organization in the Republic of Congo and has been working with government, community and private sector partners to achieve conservation in multiple landscapes across the country for nearly 3 decades. In 1991, WCS signed a Cooperative agreement with the Congolese Government to provide technical advice on the creation and management of the Nouabale-Ndoki National Park (NNNP) through the Nouabale-Ndoki Project, which has now developed into a public-private-partnership. WCS Congo has also been internationally recognized for its innovative work in collaboration with the forestry companies working in the peripheral zone of the NNNP (through PROGEPP - Projet de Gestion des Ecosystemes de la Peripherique au Parc National de Nouabale-Ndoki) to promote the conservation and sustainable management of natural resources outside of protected areas. WCS has been working with the Lac Tele Community Reserve since 2001 and coordinates the implementation of bush meat consumption and trafficking reduction orientated projects.
