Species can recover with the right support
Our focus on evidence-led conservation helps to
maximise impact, contributing to maintaining and
restoring biodiversity and wider ecosystem resilience
to bene昀椀t people and wildlife.
But we need to go further and faster.
4 Enabling coexistence and reducing
human–wildlife con昀氀ict
As the populations of some species we support begin
to recover and grow, we aim to prevent, reduce
and resolve potential con昀氀icts to support successful
coexistence with human interests.
5 Climate-proo昀椀ng species recovery
For the next 50 years we will drive a step-change in the
scale and effectiveness of VWT’s mission to ensure an
improvement in the fortunes of threatened mammals
through focused delivery of the following actions.
1 Greater impact for more mammal species
We will build resilience against the effects of climate
change by monitoring and assessing which species are
likely to adapt, and by taking mitigating action — for
example, climate-proo昀椀ng bat roosts, facilitating range
shifts and relocating species that are unable to keep
pace with environmental change.
Six times more species are experiencing a decline in
their conservation status than improving. We will use
our expertise in evidence-led conservation to seek to
treble the number of species we work on.
2 Mammal recovery at a landscape scale
Restoring species across a greater area of their
former range will ensure populations have the
space they need and increase population recovery
and species’ resilience to future climate change.
3 Putting people and partnerships
at the heart of our work
Embracing diverse values and cultural perspectives,
we will make long-term commitments to people,
places and partners.
