This review will give you a taste of some of A Rocha’s work around the world from 2018/2019. We hope you will be encouraged by the many hopeful stories: like our forest reserve in Dakatcha Woodlands, Kenya which has tripled in size; or the 10,000+ people that have benefited from A Rocha Uganda’s bio-sand filters, bringing clean water and reducing deforestation around Kampala. Thanks to your support, communities on six continents are making a real difference to the places and wildlife they love, and species as diverse the Grey-faced Petrel of New Zealand and the elephants of Bannerghatta, India are more secure.
