  • CONVEI: Collaborative Network for Valuing Earth Information

    Earth Observations can provide real-time, globally available, and publicly accessible information for decision-makers to track current and future natural impacts and prioritize which actions to take for their localities. Teaming up with NASA, NOAA, and USGS, WWF is working to build better understanding of the beneficial outcomes from Earth Observations and how to improve them.

  • Conserving Wildlife and Enabling Communities in Namibia

    Namibia is home to an array of wildlife, from ostriches and zebras roaming the gravel plains to penguins and seals chilling in the Atlantic currents. It was the first African country to incorporate protection of the environment into its constitution. With WWF’s help, the government has reinforced this conservation philosophy by empowering its communities with rights to manage and benefit from the country’s wildlife through communal conservancies.

  • Enduring Earth: Accelerating Sustainable Finance Solutions to Achieve Durable Conservation

    The project objective is to catalyze sustainable, long-term investment in globally significant conservation areas in Namibia and Gabon and enable scaling out of the Enduring Earth approach in additional countries, contributing to 30x30 goals.
