The Biodiversity Support Program (BSP) is a consortium of World Wildlife Fund, The Nature Conservancy and World Resources Institute, funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). BSP’s mission is to promote conservation of the world’s biological diversity. We believe that a healthy and secure living resource base is essential to meet the needs and aspirations of present and future generations. BSP began in 1988 and will close down in December 2001.
Our communications activities are designed to share what we are learning through our field and research activities. To accomplish this, we try to analyze both our successes and our failures. We hope our work will serve conservation practitioners as a catalyst for further discussion, learning and action so that more biodiversity is conserved. Our communications programs include print publications, Web sites, presentations and workshops.
We invite you to visit our Web sites.
