CSG Members

The CSG currently has 27 members in 10 countries (as of May 2024).

Membership in the CSG is by invitation only, based on experience, expertise, and leadership in chameleon conservation and/or biology.

Please contact Christopher V. Anderson if you would like to be considered for CSG membership. We are especially interested in new members from nations under-represented in the membership, and who are focused on scientific research and/or conservation efforts for chameleons. Although membership is considered an honor earned, it is also a responsibility to participate and to contribute actively to our chameleon conservation efforts. We focus primarily on scientific evaluations of status and threats analysis, and help to catalyze conservation action, while avoiding non-scientific advocacy. If you feel that you are able to contribute to our work, please contact us.
