The Eastern Africa Primate Diversity and Conservation Program is a long term research program based in Kenya. The program was founded in 2003 and focuses mainly on primate biogeography, diversity, taxonomy and conservation in Kenya and Tanzania. However, the program also looks into the biogeography of other African mammals. Click on Projects for more information.

News We are very happy to announce that the East African Primate Diversity and Conservation Program will join efforts to map the distribution of the African mammals withMammalMAP, an initiative of the University of Cape Town. The aim of MammalMAP is to update the distribution records of all African mammal species. Through collaborations with professional scientists, conservation organisations, wildlife authorities and citizen scientists across Africa, MammalMap registers current mammal locations into an open-access digital database. For more information, or to contribute distribution records, please visitMammalMAP
