How We Can Help You Learn about Wildlife & Conservation

Information for schools & young students

The World Land Trust has videos, leaflets and newsletters about its projects. Check out Resources for schools to find out more. Be sure to check out our online resource for 11-14 year olds, Focus on Forests (which is also available in bookform for free.)

Information for budding conservationists

The World Land Trust offers a six month internship aimed at those wishing to pursue a career in conservation, with interns gaining valuable experience of project development and conservation management. In collaboration with the University of East Anglia, the Trust is also running a Diploma course in Conservation and Project Administration. From time to time there are also job opportunities at the World Land Trust.

Researching on the Internet

Conservation on the web

There are many thousands of web sites on the Internet covering all aspects of the environment and its conservation and preservation. Many of these sites are of huge educational value and are also a pleasure to visit. In our Wildlife & Conservation Links Directory we have compiled a list of conservation related sites that you may find useful. Try searching the web for topics you are interested in, using a search engine such as Google. You can also try an edited directory like dmoz.org or yahoo. These feature sites that have been categorised to make searching easier.

You can find lots of information on the World Land Trust website itself. News releases and articles of interest can be found in our news section, including information about Global Warming. Be sure to visit our educational website Focus on Forests for information on rainforest issues. You can also search the WLT website for specific information, using the search facility at the top of every page.
