The WCS Ecuador Program was officially registered by the Ecuadorian government in 2001. Since our foundation, we have worked to conserve wildlife and habitat in the Yasuní Landscape in partnership with indigenous organizations, local government authorities, and Ecuador's Ministry of the Environment (MAE). In 2014, we began expanding our work to the Llanganates landscape. WCS’s team of biologists, geographers, ecologists, resource managers, anthropologists, and communicators have carried out diverse projects in the region, involving elements of applied scientific research, wildlife management, institutional strengthening, capacity building, and environmental education.
