PROJET PRIMATES FRANCE
Who we are?
Primates France Project (PPF), partner of the Chimpanzee Conservation Center (CCC)
PPF is a non-profit organization founded by former CCC volunteers in Guinea. After spending several months of their lives caring for orphaned chimpanzees at the sanctuary, these volunteers wanted to continue their commitment in Europe in order to provide long-term support for the center and contribute to the protection of primates and their natural habitat.
- PROVIDE FINANCIEL SUPPORT to the CCC, and assist it logistically and operationally, and
- RAISE AWARENESS among the public about the protection of primates and biodiversity.
Africa’s forests are shrinking every day under human pressure: exploitation of exotic wood, construction of roads for logging, poaching, illegal trafficking of wild animals… These activities are leading to the irreversible disappearance of emblematic species such as chimpanzees, but also of many essential ecosystems.
- Conducting interventions in schools (starting in kindergarten) to convey conservation messages;
- Setting up awareness-raising stands at events to inform and raise funds;
- Organizing conferences, exhibitions, debates… on conservation issues.
PPF works in schools to:
- Raise awareness of environmental protection through an emblematic animal: the chimpanzee;
- Help students understand that our actions have an impact on our immediate and distant environment;
- Enable students to become actively involved in protecting chimpanzees by setting up projects to support the association.

All funds raised by PPF are used to finance CCC’s activities in Guinea: medical care, food, infrastructure, education programs, and community projects around the Upper Niger National Park.
