Our Mission

Education for Nature Vietnam (ENV) is a non-governmental organization focused on wildlife conservation. ENV protects endangered species from extinction by working to end the illegal wildlife trade threatening thousands of animals in Vietnam and worldwide.

In the wake of the sixth mass extinction, Education for Nature Vietnam is taking action against extinction and fighting for the preservation of biodiversity. We do this through an effective approach consisting of three elements:

  • Reduce consumer demand for wildlife and wildlife products in Vietnam
  • Strengthen Vietnamese law enforcement to better respond to wildlife crime
  • Work with lawmakers, prosecutors and judges to update legislation regarding wildlife in Vietnam and ensure wildlife criminals face the full extent of the law

Join ENV this year to fight the illegal wildlife trade

Give marine turtles a chance

The odds of a marine turtle making it to adulthood and reproducing are around 1000 to 1. Factor in exploitation for their meat, eggs and shells and the odds lengthen even further.

Today, we have launched a new fund-raising campaign to help ENV protect Vietnam’s internationally important marine turtle populations.
