From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The African Conservation Centre is a non-governmental organization based in Kenya. The group was founded in 1995. In 2007 it received a US$200,000 grant from the Ford Foundation. Their work has focused on capacity building "to conserve wildlife through sound science, local initiatives and good governance."
