NGOs play a vital role in biodiversity conservation by advocating for environmental protection, funding research, and raising public awareness. They often serve as intermediaries between governments, communities, and international bodies to facilitate conservation initiatives. NGOs can mobilize resources, provide technical expertise, and implement on-the-ground projects that promote biodiversity conservation. By engaging with local communities, they foster sustainable practices and empower grassroots efforts, ensuring that conservation strategies are culturally relevant and effective. Their advocacy efforts also influence policymaking at various levels.
