Our Regional Networks take CBSG tools
and principles deep into the local institutions of a region or country,
allowing stakeholders to adapt our proven conservation techniques to meet their
own unique needs. We believe that this freedom to shape a Network according to
the needs of the culture, society, and services of the individual country is a
requirement for successfully addressing the sheer magnitude of the problem of
biodiversity loss on this planet, as well as the diversity in environment,
culture and social systems, economic conditions, policy and governance, and
philosophy in different countries and regions.
