Enduring Earth is a visionary collaboration between The Nature Conservancy, The Pew Charitable Trusts, World Wildlife Fund, and ZOMALAB. Together, we partner with environmental stewards to amplify ambition, mobilize resources, and secure sustainable funding aimed at addressing biodiversity loss, combating climate change, and enhancing community well-being.
We turn ambition into action by advancing progress toward the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals, the Paris Climate Agreement, and the Global Biodiversity Framework. Central to our strategy is durable conservation and community development, a critical driver in building resilience and accelerating progress on globally significant biodiversity and climate targets. Our Project Finance for Permanence initiatives are key to achieving these outcomes, focusing on carbon sequestration, biodiversity protection, ecosystem preservation, and fostering equitable partnerships that enhance community resilience and deliver lasting benefits.
Through its multifaceted framework, which integrates collaborative design, local leadership, stewardship, government support, financial investment, and rigorous accountability mechanisms, the PFP model ensures the durability of protected areas. This holistic strategy is designed not only to conserve vital ecosystems but also to counteract the decline in biodiversity, fostering environmental sustainability and securing tangible socio-economic benefits to communities worldwide
