Reaching out to TM Practitioners, Schools and Suppliers
IFAW's strategy to reduce the commercial exploitation of endangered species used in traditional medicines (TM) includes protecting wildlife habitat, reducing consumer demand, and preventing illegal trade.
To control the exploitation of wildlife, IFAW collaborates with
government agencies and TM practitioners, schools and
suppliers.
We work to raise awareness in the international community that the expanding consumer market for animal products – if unregulated -- will lead to increased poaching for the black market trade and the potential extinction of some species.
IFAW is partnering with TM students in the United Kingdom, China and the United States to bring endangered species education into the TM curriculum.
