Conserving nature worldwide

WHO ARE WE?

The International Conservation Fund of Canada (ICFC) was created to further the conservation of wild nature, especially in the tropics, where biological diversity and threats to it are greatest.

Our focus is on the following regions: the Neotropics (Central America and South America), central Africa, Indonesia, Malaysia, and tropical coastal marine areas.

ICFC works in partnership with carefully selected non-governmental organizations and individuals working in our countries of interest.

As a new organization, we are currently taking stock on where the best opportunities lie for achieving lasting conservation gains. We're doing this by reviewing the literature and consulting with conservation experts worldwide.
([>] Provide input.)

Canadians benefit directly and indirectly from the large-scale conservation of nature, as do people in all nations. As an affluent country, Canada can do more to supply much needed funding for conservation in less developed countries. This was the motivation in creating ICFC.
