Mission Coex

for a peaceful coexistence with wildlife

About Us

Our Cause

Let's start with the good news. Nature is coming back!

Mission Coex is a non-profit initiative in Switzerland, committed to promoting and enabling coexistence with nature through reducing human-wildlife conflict and preventing wildlife road accidents. We are dedicated to help safeguarding livestock, and guiding wild animal movement by innovative technologies to ensure a sustainable recovery and a safe spread of flora and fauna.

The situation:
  • Thanks to successful efforts, biodiversity is increasing

  • The area of protected nature reserves is growing

  • Wildlife is gradually returning

​

The problem:
  • Conflict and risk (accidents, damage by wildlife) is increasing

  • Negative emotions (anger, dissatisfaction, fear) towards wildlife is building up

  • Habitat of wild animals is still fragmented, limiting their free movement and
    healthy genetic exchange among populations

 

What needs to be done:

Actions and measures need to be put in place to:

  • protect humans, their crops and farm animals from damage by wildlife

  • reduce the number of road accidents

  • protect birds and bats from the danger of collisions with structures,

  • eliminate the need for aggressive management of wildlife

  • increase connectivity of isolated habitats

  • increase quality of existing habitats (diversity, abundance of natural food source)

​

Your involvement and action is needed:
  • if you own farmland, crops and animals

  • if you live on the boundary of natural habitat of wildlife

  • if you live in a city but you want to contribute part of your surroundings to enhance the urban ecosystem

  • if you are part of a nature protection organization that can help raise awareness and provide support

  • if you are a decision maker having an influence on regulations affecting the well-being and life of wild animals

 

What can you do?

Implement protective measures on your property:

  • safety installations (fences, cameras, deterrence tools) -> check out or ongoing projects and recommended products

  • ​use guardian animals (dogs, donkeys) to protect herds

  • reach out to us to help with those solutions financially or with voluntary work

Help by sharing your experience and telling us about your needs, for all of us to learn.

Reduce aggressive regulations impacting natural processes.


​What can we do?
  • we will help you with collection of financial support where the federal system offers no funding, or limited funding

  • we will organize helpers to install safety solutions

​
What will be the result?

More peaceful coexistence between a diverse and healthy natural environment, where humans find joy outdoors as much as benefit from the positive effects of healthy natural environment.
