Have you ever wondered how Leave No Trace applies on Mount Kilimanjaro, on the Galapagos Islands, in the Brazilian rain forests, Japan or the Middle East? The Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics has received inquiries from over 60 countries in recent years for education, training or the tools to provide Leave No Trace programs in their countries. Requests have ranged from developing Leave No Trace organizations in New Zealand, Israel and India to programmatic work in places such as the Ukraine, Philippines, China, Tanzania and Bolivia. To that end, we provide educational tools and offers partnerships to these international groups. Additionally, basic Leave No Trace information has been translated into over a dozen languages, and organizations are using the program all over the world.
As a component of the Center’s international response, we have assisted in the development of three international branch organizations: Leave No Trace Australia, Leave No Trace/Sans trace Canada and Leave No Trace Ireland. These branches of the Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics function as independent, nonprofit organizations with their own governance, funding sources and strategic priorities though they share in the mission of Leave No Trace.
