Founded by Brian Williams in 2007, Red Panda Network has become a world leader in efforts to protect red pandas and their habitat.
We use an integrated, landscape-level approach to conservation that is built on the support and participation of local communities.
Our conservation programs extend to over one million acres of forest and 50% of Nepal’s red panda range! We work with community partners in 10 districts (of 23 red panda range districts) in Nepal. We are also working with 70 Community Forests in adopting sustainable forest management practices.
