Virunga National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site located in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. Virunga is the most biodiverse protected area on the African continent and is also engaged in an ambitious development program known as the Virunga Alliance. Located in
a region that has been deeply affected by the effects of war and armed conflict for over 20 years, Virunga is protected by a dedicated team of over 689 Rangers. These local men and women undergo intensive training, risking their lives daily to protect the Park’s exceptional wildlife, including the last endangered mountain gorillas. Alongside this essential conservation work, the Park is committed to supporting local communities. Virunga has a vision to responsibly exploit its natural resources to create new opportunities for the four million people living within a day’s walk of its borders.
Focusing on three key areas: hydropower, sustainable agriculture and fisheries, and tourism, Virunga National Park is working to transform the region economically by creating jobs and reducing poverty rates. This innovative, community-driven approach aims to reduce the pressures that the Park Rangers currently face from armed groups, illegal poaching and land encroachment.
