Our guiding principles are to work through local partnerships, to act as a catalyst for change, to make conservation relevant and to base decisions on sound science. We try to complement the work of other conservation organizations, not only to avoid duplication of effort, but also to protect areas or species that might otherwise be neglected.

Many organizations focus exclusively on certain species or ecological ‘hotspots’. We also place value on unglamorous locations and species precisely because they have lower profiles and limited donor appeal, and need our help.
We operate in many different contexts, so we work with our partners to develop innovative and imaginative conservation solutions that address particular problems. Underlying this flexibility, there remains the commitment to undertake scientifically grounded conservation in ways that also help achieve development goals.
Local stakeholders are the best long-term guardians of biodiversity. The most valuable contribution that Fauna & Flora International can make is to support them until they can achieve this independently.
Your support has never been more valuable or timely. Your commitment can help us protect the entire spectrum of endangered plant and animal species. Join FFI today.
