About [Edit]
Conservation International believes that Earth`s natural heritage must be maintained if future generations are to thrive spirtually, culturally and economically.
Our mission is to conserve the Earth`s living heritage, our global biodiversity, and to demonstrate that human societies are able to live harmoniously with nature.
CI applies innovations in science, economics, policy and community participation to protect the Earth`s richest regions of plant and animal diversity in the hotspots, major tropical wilderness areas and key marine ecosystems. With headquarters in Washington, D.C., CI works in more than 30 countries on four continents.
Conservation poses complex and ever-changing challenges involving politics, cultures and economies. Conservation International's (CI) programs combine scientific knowledge with expertise in specialized fields to achieve conservation solutions. Our programs work to demonstrate the value of partnerships, they lend advice on best practices and they guide implementation of conservation solutions in the field. Some of CI's programs also provide financial support to conservation efforts run by local conservationists.
