Community Rights and Livelihoods
Partnering with Indigenous Peoples & Local Communities
Indigenous peoples and local communities are among the most important stewards of the land. They are critical to WWF's mission to build a future where human needs are met in harmony with nature. WWF is committed to supporting these groups and working with them to conserve and sustainably use their natural resources.
