About SCNL

The Society for the Conservation of Nature of Liberia (SCNL) is Liberia's leading conservation organizations, working to protect the country's globally significant forests, wildlife, and ecosystems.

For nearly four decase, SCNL has delivered high-impact conservation in partnership with government, communities, and international networks including BirdLife International and IUCN, ensuring lasting benefits for both nature and people.

Their Challenges

Liberia's forests are among West Africa's last strongholds of biodiversity, but they are under increasing threat from mining, poaching, illegal logging, and weak enforcement capacity.

At the same time, conservation efforts are constrained by limited long-term funding and growing pressure from communities seeking sustainable livelihoods.

Without sustained investment, critical ecosystems and endangered species are at risk.

Their Approach

Your support enables SCNL to deliver proven, scalable solutions:

  1. Protect critical habitats through strengthened Protected Area management and anti-poaching efforts
  2. Support community-led conservation, empowering local people as stewards of their forests
  3. Advance climate solutions through carbon finance, agroforestry, and sustainable forest enterprises.
  4. Generate data for impact, using science to guide effective conservation action.

SCNL works at the landscape scale, integrating conservation with livelihoods so that protected nature also improves lives. From community forestry to biodiversity monitoring systems, their approach is practical, inclusive, and results-driven.

Why They Need Your Help

By supporting SCNL, you are directly investing in the protection of one of Africa's most important forest ecosystems while helping communities build resilient, sustainable futures.

Your contribution directly protects wildlife, strengthens communities, and secures the future of Liberia's natural heritage.
