Threats to our planet’s biodiversity and natural resources are increasingly urgent and complex. And while the conservation community is working tirelessly to address these threats, so far it’s not enough. We must come together to learn from our successes and our failures. We have to become smarter and work efficiently.
Partnering directly with conservation teams, we strengthen skills and provide the tools needed for teams to be more strategic, efficient, and effective. Across the world, we bring together conservation practitioners, funders, and educators to share lessons and ask tough questions. The result is a more innovative and disciplined conservation community prepared to take on the threats to our planet.
OUR VISION
Improving the impact of conservation
We envision a world in which conservation teams work together to successfully protect the planet’s threatened landscapes, fostering thriving ecosystems, nurturing biodiversity, mitigating and adapting to climate change, and improving human well-being in the process.
What will this world look like?
