| Project: Wildlife
Values & Education |
This research project, based in
Yaounde, Cameroon, and in cooperation with The Cameroon
Wildlife Aid Fund & The Gorilla Foundation, represents
stage one in a long term study of attitudes and beliefs
toward the great apes and the natural world in Africa.
Despite the multitude of intervention projects in
Africa few, if any, have systematically studied the
long term effect on local attitudes and beliefs. Understanding
attitudes and beliefs gives insight into values. This
project will be extended to explore attitudes and
beliefs of people from rural and urban settings, people
of all ages, and from different tribal and ethnic
backgrounds. Results will continue to be posted on
our website.
