Community and Conservation Work

Outreach

Our field team regularly engages with tourists, journalists, guides, students, NGOs, and government officials in Ethiopia and the US to communicate our science and conservation work. Our team members have participated in Conservation Camps run by the Simien Lodge for students living in and around the national park, represented the SMGRP at the Ministry of Science and Technology in Addis Ababa, given presentations about gelada research and conservation on Ethiopian National Television, and done interactive outreach events with high school and university students in Ethiopia and the US.
