Izilwane operates at the cutting edge of conservation understanding that before individuals will change their actions, they must first change their perceptions. As an educational online ezine, Izilwane is a catalyst that inspires this change.

In a few short months, Izilwane has published articles on the Sixth Great Extinction, wolf reintroduction in Idaho, the return of the Aplomado falcon to New Mexico, and how the Youth Conservation Corps programs inspire young people to care about nature. Photo galleries include “The Galapagos,” “Philippine Marine Life” and others. There are interviews of filmmaker Chris Palmer and Michael Soule, the grandfather of conservation biology.

Izilwane launched in October 2010 as an online magazine. The non-profit continues to operate entirely by volunteer efforts, amounting to nearly 7,000 volunteer hours last year. Generous contributions from donors who support our cause continue to aid in our operating costs. Dr. Tara Waters Lumpkin, an environmental and medical anthropologist, founded Izilwane in 2009 and has worked tirelessly since to ensure the organization's success.
