ABOUT US
Our mission is to promote the conservation and the sustainable and equitable use of tropical rain forest in a manner that will lead to lasting ecological, economic, and social benefits to the people of Guyana and the world in general, by undertaking research, training and the development and dissemination of technologies

OUR IMPACT
Iwokrama champions a people-centered approach to conservation, combining traditional knowledge with science to sustainably manage forest resources and support local livelihoods. Over 90% of staff come from nearby indigenous communities—more than half are women—fostering economic development and building local conservation leadership.

Through partnerships with 20+ indigenous communities, Iwokrama supports youth engagement via wildlife clubs, many of whose members now serve as community leaders. The 2025 North Rupununi Wildlife Festival brought together over 300 participants from 18 clubs, showcasing the Centre’s deep and lasting impact on both people and nature.
