Founded in 1975, the Wildlife Clubs of Uganda (WCU) is a country-wide association of young people’s environmental clubs in schools that are committed to the conservation of Uganda’s natural heritage and the wise use of environmental resources. WCU is a non-religious and non-political association that does not discriminate in its membership based on gender, ethnicity, religion, or political differences. Most of the club’s activities are implemented by working with regional coordinators and district wildlife club chairpersons.
The mission of the Wildlife Clubs of Uganda is to educate the population to ensure the sustainable use of Uganda’s natural resources and to conserve the country’s wildlife heritage for the present and future generations.
To cultivate a desire for environmental conservation amongst the people of Uganda and East Africa as a whole
To promote the appreciation and scientific study of the country’s
wildlife and the environment
To promote the realization of the economic, recreational and aesthetic
values of the country’s natural resources
To improve cooperation with other organizations having similar

Uganda’s future leaders understand nature and increase their ability to use resources wisely. Our programmes include: annual competitions, Wildlife Clubs Convention, mobile education, wildlife camps, conservation seminars and workshops, and publications, among others.
