History

NatureLife Cambodia is a national conservation organization. The organization was established with technical support from BirdLife International and financial support from the Critical Ecosystem Partnership Fund through International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). NatureLife was founded with 12 members, of whom 10 are BirdLife Cambodia core staffs. The establishment was initiated as part of BirdLife International’s transitional strategy. BirdLife International works in more than 120 countries through national NGO partners. In Cambodia after actively engaging in the conservation sector and building local staff capacity for more than 12 years, BirdLife International is looking to hand over their mission to a Cambodian conservation NGO. All 12 enthusiastic founders of NatureLife have in common the strong conviction that BirdLife’s mission can be implemented by Cambodians.
