Core values

- **Conservation Activities**: Organizations like WWF dedicate a significant portion of their resources (around 82%)[1][3] to conservation activities, which include protecting biodiversity, restoring habitats, and addressing climate change. These efforts are crucial for maintaining ecosystem health, which is essential for human well-being and the planet's resilience.
- **Impact on Biodiversity and Climate**: These projects often result in tangible outcomes such as the protection of species, restoration of habitats, and reduction of greenhouse gas emissions[1][3][5].
- **Community and Indigenous Engagement**: They also involve working with local communities and Indigenous groups, promoting sustainable livelihoods and respecting Indigenous rights, which enhances community well-being and social justice[1][5].
