Want to help out a highly endangered species? Learn more about our closest human relative, the bonobos - a critically endangered ape - while doing your part to help protect them! The Bonobo Conservation Initiative is looking to import some sustainable forest products from the Dominican Republic. We are looking for someone to help us research U.S. import/export laws that we can use in our business plan. If you have a background in law or exceptional research skills, we would love to have you help!
Bonobo Conservation Initiative (BCI) is the only international organization solely dedicated to protecting bonobos, a highly endangered species of great ape. BCI's mission is to protect bonobos, preserve their tropical rainforest habitat, and empower local communities in the Congo Basin. By working with local Congolese people through cooperative conservation and community development programs, and by shaping national and international policy, BCI is establishing new protected areas and leading efforts to safeguard bonobos wherever they are found.
