Find out how you can help protect the last remaining areas on Earth to play home to the orang utan,with these remarkable GVI projects.

Work with the habitat and local community to sustain the orangs in Borneo or join the project in Sumatra, and help investigate which special behaviours and ecological conditions are necessary to maintain health in wild orang utans. It's the only ongoing, long-term research project studying orang utan health anywhere in the world.
