About Us
The Yale Conservation Association for Undergraduate Students (YCAUS) is dedicated towards fostering a community of Yale students dedicated towards protecting the planet’s biodiversity and natural resources. Such a voice is sorely needed at Yale – YCAUS is currently the only undergraduate organization with a primary focus on conservation. By investigating potential solutions for the planet’s climate crisis and raising awareness of habitat destruction and the planet’s ongoing sixth mass extinction, YCAUS's mission is to support conservation research and to foster discussion of recent developments in the environmental sciences.
