Bats without Borders is dedicated to conserving bats, biodiversity and healthy ecosystems within southern Africa’s changing landscape. We will achieve this by supporting and conducting applied research that informs targeted conservation action, strengthening local capacity and promoting a positive attitude towards bats through public engagement. Find out more about our vision, mission and commitments here.
Please note we are currently in the process of updating our website.Can you help Bats without Borders?Now more than ever we urgently need your help! Your support is critical to help protect southern African bats. Like many small NGOs, we are struggling to operate and urgently need funding. You can either make a donation by clicking the link below, consider becoming a Friend of Bats without Borders or make a donation when joining some of our great events!
Your funding will go directly to support conservation and engagement activities as well as strengthening in-country capacity for sustainable long-term conservation. Did you know?There are over 1,420+ bat species globally? Accounting for ~20% of mammals worldwide. Africa has an incredible diversity of 300+ species, and across southern Africa we have 130+ species!
Sadly, Africa is considered a bat conservation-void and bats are largely unprotected outside of protected areas. Habitat loss, land degradation and persecution are major threats to bat populations. We urgently need your help, like many other NGOs we are struggling to raise much needed funding, if you are in a position to make a donation or help us with fundraising we would really appreciate the support.
