Background
Ecological Nest is a non-governmental, non-political and non-profit making conservation organization with offices in Accra and Kumasi. Our mission is to promote the conservation and sustainable use of natural resources whilst taking care of the needs of people that depend on nature. Our work is guided by three key pillars: Partnerships; Science; and Action. We believe science and data should underpin every conservation effort, uniting communities, businesses, and the public sector around bold, practical actions to safeguard our planet’s future.

To support corporate organizations to reduce their ecological footprints, we work in partnership with private sector players and public institutions to fashion out business models that safeguard biodiversity. We rely on scientific evidence through research projects to engage decision makers and influence national policy.

Econest recently received funding from the Vumbusi Impact Africa (VIA) Foundation to implement the project, ‘Bia Riparian Corridor Restoration Initiative’ with the purpose of advancing ecosystem restoration in the Juaboso-Bia sub-landscape, implemented under TerraFund for AFR100. The project's overall aim is to contribute to restoring the degraded landscape in the Bia River Tributaries to regain functionality, providing ecosystem services including biodiversity, food security and sustainable water outcomes.
