Round River Conservation Studies is an ecological research and education organization whose goal is the formulation and implementation of conservation strategies that conserve and restore wildness. We recognize that flourishing wildlife, wildness and wild places are important in and of themselves and that conservation to be sustainable must be tied to the communities most dependent upon these landscapes.
We take our name from Aldo Leopold’s essay Round River, along with the idea that ecological study enriches one’s personal land ethic and strengthens a community’s collective wisdom. Round River is dedicated to conservation strategies that preserve and restore wild places; to that end, we strive to develop and support traditions that sustain wildness. These efforts are anchored in the principles of conservation biology, supported by field research and community planning.
Today, thanks to the perseverance of our supporters and partners, we are witnessing success. As a small organization we are proud of our effectiveness, assisting with the creation of recognized conservation plans exceeding 100 million acres and over 10 million acres of designated protection. We also continue our partnerships long after the plans are completed – helping implement and monitor success of our collaborative efforts and continuing to gather critical information to inform on-going conservation decisions.
We work in Canada (British Columbia), Costa Rica (Osa Peninsula), Chile (Patagonia), Botswana (Okavango Delta), and soon Mongolia (Darhad Valley).
Round River's Study Abroad Programs are field-based, authentic experiences that offer the opportunity for small groups of students to become part of our efforts, and work alongside Round River's conservation biologists and our local community partners. Students earn credits while gaining incredible life experiences. Check out our website for more information, and to apply!
