AfricanBats is a not for profit organization that aims to conserve Africa's bat diversity. The open access quarterly journal African Bat Conservation News was established in July 2004, with the aim to create a forum where observations, notes, ideas and discussions on conservation of bats can be voiced in a published format. In July 2006, the first issue of the African Chiroptera Report was released with annually updates. The aim of this publication is to assemble all information on bats in Africa into a single annually updated open source reference document. As these ideas and issues have grown, it has become apparent that a more holistic approach to conservation of bats in Africa is needed, for which a coordinated strategy is developed. Therefore, AfricanBats was registered as a Not-For-Profit company on the 18 January 2012, which will investigate and pursue the conservation of bats in Africa.
