Because the Heartlands cover truly vast tracts of public and private land, cooperation by many public and private parties is required for success. Here are some of AWF's partners in the Virunga Heartland:
- Fauna & Flora International
- Institut Congolais pour la Conservation de la Nature (ICCN)
- International Gorilla Conservation Program (IGCP)
- Local Governments of the Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda and Uganda
- Rwanda Development Board
- Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA)
- World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF)
