Shifting gears

Humanity needs roads and other infrastructure. But how can we minimize infrastructure's negative impacts and allow nature to thrive?

We start with a commitment to place. WWF works to save the places that are most essential for all life on Earth, including our own.

Living ecosystems that promote biodiversity and support human life

Our work to reverse nature loss and conserve biodiversity has never been more urgent.

Together with partners, WWF develops innovative solutions in every place we work.

By addressing the “whole of a place”—its ecology, economy, governance, culture, people, and wildlife—WWF helps create crucial and scalable solutions to nature's greatest threats.

Lasting change only succeeds when the needs of people are prioritized in balance with conservation. That’s why we center people in our work—especially Indigenous Peoples and local communities.

Around the world, WWF works with corporations to build smarter, more sustainable and successful supply chains and outcomes.

We are connected as Americans by how deeply we value and connect with nature in our daily lives.
