Landscape Conservation
We're empowering the next generation of conservationists.
A water pump allows a community and its animal neighbors to coexist.
These places on Earth that people and animals call home transcend borders and cultures, sectors and scales. Our team is on the frontlines in the fight for cleaner air, clearer water, and healthier habitats everywhere.

From cities to rural areas, from factories to farms, human activity is destroying the natural world. When habitats vanish, so do the animals who live there—and people suffer, too.
Make Room to Roam
The places we call habitats are, for countless living creatures, home. That’s why we’re fighting to secure the land, water, and airspace animals need to thrive.
We’re helping people take care of the precious ecosystems in their own backyard. And wherever people and animals are neighbors, we’re there to help them live in harmony.
People and animals need lots of room to roam. To help them share common ground, we secure safe corridors for food, water, and migration. If they’re orphaned, injured, or just lose track of the herd, we help them find home. We also teach people how to avoid clashes with wildlife, and we keep their crops and livestock protected from predators. When animals stray into human territory, or people put habitats up for sale, we go to the negotiating table for all the species in the ecosystem. The way we see it, everyone deserves a conflict-free environment.
Thrive Together
It’s in our nature to fight for survival, but it’s in our power to thrive together. In eight landscapes around the world, we’re empowering people to invest in the land. From farming to weaving, nature-sourced livelihoods are bringing local communities to the global marketplace. Those sustainable incomes support sustainable lifestyles. For example, in Northeastern India, where the forest is disappearing, we promote energy-efficient woodstoves to decrease peoples’ dependence on timber. Aligning our economy with our environment is possible. It starts with incentivizing people to buy-in.
