SCGIS - International Chapters

The international chapters of the Society for Conservation GIS work in their respective regions to build communities of conservation GIS users in accordance with the SCGIS vision and principles. These chapters have been created by long time SCGIS activists and prominent local conservationists. Currently, we have chapters working in the following countries:
