Inspiring governments and major UK corporations
to support great apes conservation
The dinner was hosted by Elliot Morley, Minister for the Environment
and Agri-Environment of the United Kingdom, and Klaus Toepfer, Executive
Director of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). A keynote
address was given by eminent conservationist Dr Richard Leakey.
Largest donor to the Great Apes Survival Project
(GRASP), the UK Government got involved in a campaign to "bring
GRASP to business", in the first half of 2004. It culminated in
the gala dinner, held at Prince Albert Suite, London Zoo, Regent's
Park, London.
