As we celebrate World Gorilla Day today, 24th September 2025, here’s a special gift for you: take a moment to watch (or rewatch) the CNN documentary Call to Earth: Kings of the Forest, which recently featured our CEO, Dr. Gladys Kalema-Zikusoka, alongside our work at CTPH with the Uganda Wildlife Authority.

This film highlights the critical role gorillas play not just in preserving ecosystems but also in supporting local economies. You'll also gain a deeper understanding of the work we do and how gorilla conservation is closely linked with community health and sustainable livelihoods, and why it's important to employ the approach in our conservation efforts.
