In the south-west of the DRC, P-WAC has opened a rehabilitation center for primate victims of human activities such as poaching, deforestation and agriculture…
Our staff provide these orphan primates all the affection, respect and care they need to recover from their captivity, in order to give them back their stolen freedom in a protected area.
To protect a species, it is vital to preserve its natural habitat. P-WAC safeguards the forests of the Congo Basin, the natural habitat of chimpanzees, with its own anti-deforestation patrol and reforestation program. Our aim is to restore the tropical rainforest and help the wild fauna to come back.
Man and Nature are inseparable. P-WAC works with local villagers to enable them to benefit directly from the preservation of the chimpanzee. While many villagers have found sustainable employment at P-WAC, involving rural and uneducated women is the heart of our project, as our logo attests.
P-WAC offers educational workshops for children to pass on the keys to better preserve our planet to future generations. Our activities are geared to schoolchildren from 6 years, but we also educate college and high school youth. Conferences are offered to universities and companies. An educational program is under development in the DRC.
