The Sumatra Nature Biodiversity Conservation (SNBC) is a non-governmental conservation organisation focused on sustainable conservation efforts to preserve biodiversity, environment and local communities.
We support and empower community-led initiatives aimed at protecting rainforests and biodiversity through a range of programmes . We have a collaborative partnership in Sumatra where we provide camera traps in little-researched and understudied areas to observe, monitor and preserve wildlife and their habitats in the areas where deforestation and human-wildlife conflict are common.
