| Abstract: The BCTF, founded in 1999, is a consortium of conservation organizations and scientists dedicated to the conservation of wildlife populations threatened by commercial hunting of wildlife for sale as meat. The BCTF operates under the direction of an elected Steering Committee and is funded by Supporting and Contributing Members. Our primary goals are to: a) work with the general members of the BCTF to focus attention on the bushmeat crisis in Africa b) establish an information database and mechanisms for information sharing regarding the bushmeat issue c) facilitate engagement of African partners and stakeholders in addressing the bushmeat issue and d) promote collaborative decision-making, fund-raising and actions among the members and associates of the BCTF. |
