China - In partnership with the Wildlife Conservation Society.
An Evidence-Based Approach to Catalyze Reduction of Illegal Saiga Horn Trade in China.
The purpose of this project is to reduce the threat of poaching and trafficking to saiga antelope by understanding the
saiga horn supply chain and consumption environment in a key consumer country (China) and catalysing demand reduction through evidence-based behavioral science approaches.
Japan & Singapore - In partnership with Chancellor Masters and Scholars of the University of Oxford.
Reducing demand for saiga horn in Japan and Singapore.
The purpose of this project is to reduce the threat of poaching and trafficking to saiga antelope by addressing
evidence gaps related to consumer behavior and drivers of consumption in two key saiga horn consumer countries (Japan and Singapore) and reducing consumption through behavior change interventions.
Malaysia - In partnership with TRAFFIC International.
Taking Stock: Establishing an Effective Saiga Horn Stockpile Management System in Malaysia.
The purpose of this project is to prevent illegal and unregulated trade of saiga antelope horn by institutionalising a transparent and robust saiga horn stockpile management system in a key consumer country (Malaysia).
