Mission

Founded in 1987, Conservation International (CI) aims to protect life on Earth and to demonstrate that human societies will thrive when in balance with nature. Our work is inspired by the core values that have been with CI since day one: passion, respect, integrity, optimism, and courage. For two decades, we have worked with our partners to protect life on Earth and to date we have conserved over 143 million terrestrial acres and 80 million acres of marine area; succeeded in helping safeguard 32 million acres of indigenous area; and undertaken carbon projects to benefit local communities in 11 countries.
