The mission of the East African Red List Authority (EARLA) is to bring botanists within the Eastern African region together to document the plants and assess and document their risk of extinction and thereby publicise the threats and encouraging their conservation.
Make a serious contribution to the knowledge and conservation of plants within the East Africa Region, by completing a range of red listing projects and, through collaborations with the Red List Unit, update and publish backlog assessments from previous quadrennia.
To inform conservation efforts, EARLA assesses species for the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
