Conservation across a connected landscape
WCS Bolivia works at the meeting point of wildlife conservation, protected-area management and community land use. Its Madidi landscape programme encompasses Madidi, Pilón Lajas and Apolobamba, alongside Indigenous territories. These connected places span Amazonian forests, floodable savannas, cloud forests and high Andean habitats, so protecting one species also requires understanding a much wider landscape.
Tools for Indigenous territorial management
The organisation’s territorial-management toolkit gathers participatory methods for Indigenous organisations and local communities. Materials include manuals, guiding questionnaires, reporting formats and training modules. Their purpose is to support collective decisions, including natural-resource management, through practical processes communities can use when planning how to care for and make use of their territories.
Mapping development pressures
A separate geographic platform brings together information on priority conservation values and infrastructure or resource-extraction projects. WCS presents it as a tool for applying the mitigation hierarchy: considering avoidance, reduction, restoration and compensation of impacts. It also helps identify situations in which biodiversity losses would be irreplaceable, making location-specific information central to planning.
Equipment for protected-area teams
In an announcement dated 13 October 2026, WCS described the delivery of 13 motorcycles and three boats for the three protected areas. The equipment supports travel, river surveillance and monitoring. The wider Legacy Landscapes programme also contributes to ranger operations and the maintenance or improvement of camps and control posts.
Sustained work with local institutions
The same programme account describes coordination with Indigenous territories and community firefighting brigades. Its approach combines field operations with local resource-management initiatives, rather than treating protection as a single delivery of equipment. WCS Bolivia’s programme pages, publications and dated reports provide ways to follow the partners, landscapes and practical activities behind this work.
