• Description:
  The mission of Orang Utan Republik Education Initiative is to facilitate conservation education regarding the endangered orangutan so that it will be saved from extinction. In order for the endangered orangutan to be saved from extinction, local Indonesians must become informed about the laws and the consequences of buying or owning orangutans and destruction of the rain forest. Ultimately, Indonesians must come to value the wildlife in the conservation sense and this will come about through effective education campaigns. At the same time, people outside the habitat countries need to better appreciate the orangutan and their role in the tropical ecosystem. OUR Education Initiative will, therefore, target both local and international audiences in programs of conservation education regarding the species and its threatened habitat.
