Great Apes Survival Partnership

Index Great Apes Survival Partnership

The Great Apes Survival Partnership (GRASP), established in 2001, aims to conserve the non-human great apes (chimpanzees, gorillas, bonobos, and orangutans) and their habitats — primarily forested tropical ecosystems that provide important services to humanity, through pro-poor conservation and sustainable development strategies.
