Guatemala The Phoenix project

In October 2003, with the help of the indigenous leader, Elena Siquinajay Suy, GVI set up the Pajaro de Fuego (Phoenix) Project  in San Andrés Itzapa. A year later, GVI set up two schools in Santa Maria de Jesus. There are now  over  400 children between the ages of 5-15 who benefit from these  partnerships .

Kenya Tsavo West ex-poacher rehabilitation

GVI began working with community-based organisations in the Taveta District of Kenya in November 2006. We work to support the three groups of ex-poachers to deliver education and capacity building in pursuit of new, sustainable, alternative livelihoods. Through the work of WSPA, GVI and our volunteers, local community members have received training and equipment to start bee-keeping and soap making, whilst Kidong is constructing their own Education and Cultural Centre, aimed at both local communities to teach them humane ways to tackle human-wildlife conflict and protect their crops from elephants and at tourists, with the objective of offering community-based eco-tourism.
