Mission: Bat Conservation International’s mission is to conserve the world’s bats and their ecosystems in order to ensure a healthy planet.

Target demographics: the world’s bats and their ecosystems

Direct beneficiaries per year: over 20 million bats who play a vital roles in restoring our natural ecosystems and supporting human economies across the world.

Geographic areas served: sites throughout the world

Programs: endangered species interventions, habitat protection and restoration, high-priority research, and inspirational experiences. Bats are under unprecedented threat from widespread habitat destruction, invasive species, hunting, accelerating climate change, and other stresses. Without concerted international action, bat populations could continue to fall, driving species to extinction. Working together, we have the power to end bat extinctions worldwide. With the help of partner organizations, members, and donors, we are working to conserve bat species at a global scale and ensure the survival of the most imperiled species.
