Philanthropic partners

Foundations and trusts provide critical funding for both operations and specific initiatives. They are often the first to invest in new ideas, which provides important leverage for innovation.

Thanks to the strategic funding provided by Philanthropic partners, IUCN can act quickly to explore emerging opportunities and respond to urgent threats, as well as make deep commitments to local communities and sustain investments in complex knowledge and tools that conservationists around the world rely upon. With the support of Philanthropic partners, IUCN takes action on the ground and brings lessons learned from the field into worldwide policy and finance arenas. Philanthropic partnerships have helped IUCN address plastic pollution in the ocean, contribute to the development of the first global standard of best practice for the management of protected areas, implement comprehensive initiatives to save endangered species in Africa and Asia and much more.
