Vendor Biography

The Animal Neighbours project is a community based project that uses research and education to mitigate human wildlife conflict in urban areas.

The idea to start a project started in Malaysia in 2014, following an outcry about human-macaques conflict. Macaques were reported to be encroaching human settlements and were being considered ‘pest’.

The project continues to carry out research and advocacy in Malaysia and expands its education programmes on responsible tourism and wildlife appreciation in the UK. We are keen to forge new collaborations to research and educate on this topic.
