Inspiring Young Minds Through Conservation Education.
Conservation begins with education. Since the late 2000s, Sango has been working to connect local students with the natural world. Through long-standing partnerships with schools in the region, the conservancy provides environmental education that fosters curiosity, awareness, and care for the ecosystems that support their communities.
Educational trips to Sango give students a chance to explore the conservancy firsthand. During these visits, they are introduced to the rich biodiversity of the area through guided tours, interactive sessions, and discussions about the importance of preserving wildlife and natural habitats. The program helps young people see nature not only as something to protect, but also as a valuable source of livelihood—helping them understand the dangers of activities such as poaching and unsustainable resource use.
The initiative is built on more than just excursions. Sango also donates books and learning materials to schools, contributing to classroom education that complements the hands-on experiences. Over the years, Sango has fully renovated six schools in neighboring communities, providing improved learning environments. Additionally, biodiversity information hubs featuring billboards detailing local species have been established to support ongoing conservation communication.
