About this organization
Mission
Conservation Through Public Health (CTPH) promotes biodiversity conservation by enabling people, wildlife and livestock to coexist through improving their health and livelihoods in and around Africa's protected areas. CTPH has three integrated programs: wildlife health and conservation, community health and alternative livelihoods implemented through service delivery, education and behavior change communication, research, advocacy, social enterprises and information, communication and technology (ICT). CTPH champions a "One Health" and conservation or integrated Population, Health and Environment (PHE) approach that addresses human, animal and ecosystem health together. CTPH's work primarily focuses on endangered gorillas at Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and other protected areas in Africa where gorillas naturally occur. We also train and influence other organisations to adopt our One Health model in savannah, mountain and fresh water ecosystems through advocacy.
About
WILDLIFE HEALTH MONITORING: We completed building the second block of our Gorilla Health and Community Conservation Centre with additional funding from Tusk Trust. This included a higher biosecurity laboratory for comparative cross-species disease investigations through histopathology and bacteriology for bacterial cultures; and space for treatments and necropsies. With support from the Rare Species Fund, we bought laboratory equipment, supplies, benches, and laboratory stools. With support from Tusk Trust, Critical Ecosystem Partnership Fund (Bird Life International), Wildlife Conservation Network, Cotswold Wildlife Park, National Geographic and Zoo Victoria, we analyzed over 831 gorilla fecal samples for comparative pathogen analysis with 103 livestock and 146 human fecal samples. National Geographic funded CTPH's participation in the Bwindi gorilla census. With support from National Geographic and the Critical Ecosystem Partnership Fund, we trained 163 park staff in a ranger's refresher training workshop in gorilla health monitoring and management of tourists during visits to the gorillas.
