WILDLABS
World Wide Fund for Nature/ World Wildlife Fund (WWF)
With experts across the WILDLABS community working with every type of technology and in every imaginable environment, our platform is a great place to find advice and resources on choosing what tools are right for your conservation project. Whether you're in the market to try a new camera trap model, want to experiment with drones for the first time, or need help weighing the pros and cons of data management tools, there's someone in the WILDLABS community who can help you make a smart and informed choice!
The Community Base is our general gathering group. It's the place where we cover more general, big picture topics in conservation technology - ones that don't fit neatly into our other groups. If you don't know where to post something, just post it in this group. Our moderators will move it if needed!
At our Community Base, you'll find updates from the WILDLABS team on upcoming events and opportunities, and have the chance to shape our programs and platform with your opinions. And most importantly, the Community Base is also home to our Welcome to WILDLABS thread, the best place to introduce yourself to us and the community. Stop by and tell us what you're working on!
Whether you're new to WILDLABS and want to know where to begin, or you're a longtime member looking for a handy bank of resources, our Getting Started on WILDLABS thread will be your one-stop guide to getting the most out of our platform.

Agree on all comments!!
I always place the table lengthwise against a "wall/side" so that the booth area is open.
14 July 2023 3:35pm
For 4-5 years we were using oversized tablets instead of standard "tv" screens for display (quite practical). They were a bit bulky though, and I feel that iPad (or similar) would've been a better approach.
24 August 2023 11:37pm
Hi all! Our sustainability series, Sustained Effort, officially wrapped this month. The finale shared on WILDLABS focuses on this exact topic - finding the smallest possible ways to make our work more sustainable. If you haven't read it yet, I hope you will!
But we'd love to keep this conversation going to raise morale and empower the community to keep making positive changes. With that in mind, would anyone like to share small changes they've actually implemented recently (or in the past!) that others may be able to learn from??
