On tonight's episode of Genesis we'll be hearing an episode of Making Contact's Women Rising series entitled "Rescuers of Wildlife" (2008). Women are gaining influence as leaders throughout the world, fighting for peace, justice and the environment and civil society. In this program we profile four animal rights activists:
• Alice Ng has worked with Wild Aid, founded Animal Balance in the Galapagos Islands and is now the executive director of Animals Asia Foundation.
• Romsamira Guillen is the executive director of Proyecto Titi, promoting the survival of the Cotton-top Tamarian Monkey and its habitat in Columbia.
• Lorena Aguilar is an executive with the International Union for the Conservation of Nature, specializing in community and gender issues.
• Elena Bykova heads up Wildlife Conservation Network's Saiga Conservation Alliance to preserve the Saiga Antelope in Uzbekistan.
