The Great Primate Handshake is a digital media production and training expedition created to raise awareness of African conservation organisations within Kenya, Uganda and beyond.

You will live onboard an overland truck for 28-days and experience the best landscapes in Africa whilst taking in, and supporting, the countries’ amazing wildlife.

Working alongside professionals who will assist you in the production of high quality content to be used both locally and globally.

You do not need prior knowledge, simply a passion to develop and share skills whilst working with others.

We collaborate directly with conservation organisations, educators, schools and communities to create content that makes a real difference, and we are looking for people just like you.

“With The Great Primate Handshake I couldn’t believe that I found exactly what I wanted: travelling to multiple locations, learning and working with experts in all the fields of my interest, and working on a broad conservation theme to encompass multiple issues”. - Lauren Gribble: Kenya 2010
