Mission

Founded in 1987, Conservation International (CI) works to conserve the Earth's living heritage - our global biodiversity - and to demonstrate that human societies are able to live harmoniously with nature. Our work is based on cutting-edge science, comprehensive partnerships, and concern for human well-being. With these three principles guiding us, we safeguard valuable species, preserve the most important landscapes and seascapes, and support communities that care for and rely on Earth's natural resources. To reach these goals, we focus on three strategies: dedicating ourselves to innovation, raising awareness about conservation, and maintaining business-like effectiveness.
