Getting involved can take a person in many directions - some people may choose to improve the lives of people who live in poverty and don't have the knowledge or resources to improve their farming practices, others may want to instill a culture of caring for nature by teaching children in their own community how to reduce their ecological footprint while others may participate in an Earth Watch program .
There are many ways for a person to get involved that will ultimately benefit conserving the world's biodiversity. If you are particularly interested in Madagascar's endangered animals and plants, the MFG offers a number of suggestions.
