WildLandscapes International works to empower local partners to conserve globally important landscapes thereby protecting the entire ecosystem, including biodiversity, clean water, and healthy soil. This collaboration involves ranching communities, Native peoples, sportsmen, foresters, fisherfolk, local governments, and conservation organizations.
Our work is both an intensive and long-term effort for delivering substantial and lasting results. We focus on investing in rural and Native economies, conserving wide-ranging wildlife, restoring endangered species, and developing resiliency strategies to protect landscapes and wildlife from the effects of climate change.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the U.S. Department of State, USAID, and private U.S. foundations account for almost 90% of conservation funding available abroad. Yet, grassroots organizations implementing some of the most impactful international conservation often lack capacity in the U.S. These organizations are unable to take advantage of U.S. government funding or of philanthropy hubs such as New York, Florida, and California to raise the funds necessary to reach the preservation goals of the globally important landscapes in which they work.
WildLandscapes International has identified this capacity gap as a significant impediment to sustainable grassroots conservation. We work to fill this gap through partnering with groundbreaking grassroots conservation organizations to provide capacity and expertise in fundraising, public finance, and landscape conservation that is often transferable across international boundaries.
