Fauna & Flora International
Activities and Programs

Many conservation issues are not confined to a specific region and require a global approach. We ensure that our many regional projects are linked, through our focus on a series of core conservation approaches, coordinated through our Conservation Partnerships Division. This enables us to establish effective global relationships to tackle some of the world’s highest priority conservation issues.

More often than not, countries with high levels of biodiversity also have the most pressing human needs. Fauna & Flora International recognizes that people in developing countries want to improve their material well-being and endeavours to support them by devising strategies that conserve biodiversity and contribute to human development. Conservation cannot succeed in the long term if it appears contrary to the interests of people in developing countries and this is one of the greatest challenges facing conservation today.

Rather than imposing its own agenda, Fauna & Flora International empowers in-country partners to address locally identified priorities, recognizing that conservation cannot rely on the work of outsiders in the long term. It is crucial to develop local support and institutional frameworks capable of conserving their own biodiversity.

Fauna & Flora International works with in-country partners to tackle biodiversity loss head-on through a series of projects that directly protect species or habitats. These interventions draw on the scientific expertise and wide-ranging conservation experience of Fauna & Flora International and our partners.

We recognize that threats to biodiversity are the outcome of a complex array of underlying social, economic and political pressures. Fauna & Flora International aims to change the policy and behaviour that contribute to biodiversity loss. To do this we engage with a wide range of governments and non-governmental organizations, and have been working to raise the profile of biodiversity within the wider global development debate.

It is not only government decisions that affect biodiversity, and we engage with the commercial sector to improve their operations so that their impacts on biodiversity can be reduced. We provide support to business in identifying how to ensure that biodiversity concerns are built into all levels of decision making within the company.
