Our Vision

The goal of Abercrombie & Kent Philanthropy (AKP) is to provide long-term support for existing natural ecosystems to ensure that human populations, flora and fauna continue to survive and coexist successfully. Our vision includes working together with local people and regional non-governmental organizations to inspire and develop sound community health and conservation practices, and to assist in mitigating global climate change.

Mission Statement

AKP is deeply committed to worldwide conservation. We believe that the preservation of our natural and cultural heritages is best accomplished through the sustained unification of environmental and economic goals.

• Reduce the impact of climate change with grassroots projects that involve local communities
• Educate and train the local people to protect the environment as a natural, renewable resource for their economic benefit and for future generations
• Take a proactive role in protecting endangered species and the ecosystems upon which they depend
• Provide the tools scientists need to monitor the changing environment
• Educate future generations about the sensitive balance between the expanding human population and our natural world
• Set an example and educate travellers to help them understand and respect the areas in which they travel so these fragile ecosystems can continue to thrive
