The World As I Am is a company consisting of motivated members who are dedicated to protect, preserve and rehabilitate natural areas, assisting with degraded areas or complete rectification

Our Mission

The World As I Am is only affiliated with non profit organisations, government sectors, companies or private land owners that have the best intentions for the environment with realistic outcomes.

Our focus is protecting environmental and cultural heritage, improving habitat quality through best environmental practices and community education.


True ecological restoration is not a job, not something you can learn at school or university. It comes from within. It’s a way of life.
— Guy Cooper, The World As I Am
