The Society was founded in 1961 when the Wildlife Societies of Tanzania and Kenya – both founded in 1956 – together with Ugandan wildlife enthusiasts joined hands. In the half century of its existence, the Society has become a household name and the leading voice of conservation in the region.

EAWLS stands for sound governance of our dwindling natural resources, for rational policies that promote best practice and to defend the wildlife and habitat of East Africa.
