Project
WILD is sponsored in all Canadian provinces through the Canadian
Wildlife Federation (CWF). The Canadian Project WILD Activity
Guide, published in both English and in French, combines the
activities found in the American version of the Project
WILD K-12 Curriculum and Activity Guide and the Project
WILD K-12 Aquatic Curriculum and Activity Guide. As in
the United States, the materials are made available exclusively
through workshops for educators. Agreements between the CWF
and participating provincial and territorial governments and
other agencies have steadily expanded the implementation of
the program nationwide since 1984.

The
Centre for Environment Education in Ahmedabad sponsors Project
WILD in India. The Centre is a national institution supported
by the Federal Government of India's Department of Environment,
Forest, and Wildlife. The Centre conducts teacher training
programs during which Project WILD activities are introduced.
The Centre works with students who visit Sundarvan, a nature
discovery center, and carries out selected activities with
students visiting the Ahmedabad Zoo. In 1997 the Centre produced
a publication entitled The Green Teacher: Ideas, Experiences
and Learnings in Educating for the Environment, which
introduces selected adaptations of Project WILD activities.
In early 2000, supported by the National Ministry of Education,
the Centre published Wild in the Zoo: An Information and
Activity Manual on Educational Opportunities at a Zoo. These
publications are disseminated through teacher workshops organized
in collaboration with local grassroots organizations and zoo
authorities. The Centre also produces a newsletter, News
EE, which brings environmental education information
into the farthest regions of the country.

Project
WILD is sponsored by the Parks and Recreation Foundation of
Japan, which introduced the program in 1999 with a focus on
enhancing environmental education in national government parks
and urban parks. During its first year as a program sponsor,
the Foundation has translated both the Project WILD K-12
Curriculum and Activity Guide and the Project WILD
K-12 Aquatic Curriculum and Activity Guide into Japanese.
Also, the Foundation trained 83 program facilitators, and
an additional 420 educators through eleven training courses
held in three national government parks. The Foundation added
Science & Civics: Sustaining Wildlife to its
program in 2005.
