News

In the interest of conservation, EFN has decided to change the newsletter from a printed bi-annual newsletter to an E-newsletter sent by email every 4 months. Each E-newsletter will highlight an article from an EFN grantee and alumnus.

If you are a current or past EFN grantee and would like to appear in the "Notes from the Field" section of EFN News, please send us a message telling us about your recent and noteworthy conservation activities along with a photo of yourself in the field. If you are interested in contributing an article about your work for an upcoming issue, please contact us at efn@wwfus.org.

Keep us updated on changes to your email so you can continue to receive news about current grantees and alumni. Send an email to efn@wwfus.org.
