WILD

International League of Conservation Writers site now live

The International League of Conservation Writers is a forum to bring writers together from all over the world who are writing to promote wilderness, nature, conservation, and other means to protect and restore the natural areas, habitats, animals, and plants of our planet. ILCW will present periodic writing awards to authors who excel in this field.

Formed at WILD9, the 9th World Wilderness Congress (Merida, Mexico 6-13 November 2009) during the Writer’s Seminars, the ILCW has a growing list of founding fellow and members.  There are 3 levels for membership:

Fellow: Professional writers who have made a significant contribution to the conservation of land, wilderness, and the natural world as evidenced by the wide publication of books, articles, stories, writings, or cartoons in established media (including electronic media) over a long period of time.

Associate: Associate membership is open to writers who either have not had many articles, books, stories, cartoons and other writings published in established media or have been writing on conservation for only a short time.

Academic: Academic membership is open to university and government scientists, professors, and students who have written in the fields of land conservation, wilderness or the natural world.

Stay tuned for more updates from this group!
