Sandscript


An eye on the latest conservation news of the wildlife of the Sahara and the Sahel, our biannual publication.

Since its inception, Sandscript articles have been written by our team members, our partners, and all those who, through their fieldwork, make the conservation of biodiversity a reality.

Its primary purpose is to inform the public of our conservation activities in the Sahara and Sahel, and to share all related news, but also to make the readers aware of the beauty and richness of this region of the world. Over the years, Sandscript has gone beyond a simple informative role to provide original perspectives on zones of Africa that are relatively unknown, poorly documented, and home to a biodiversity that is unfortunately very poorly protected.

We are grateful to all those who contribute to make Sandscript one of the first and finest sources of information on the species of the Sahel and Sahara, unique in the world, and yet neglected.
