Many conservation issues are not confined to a specific region and require a global approach. We work on a range of globally significant, high priority themes that transcend individual regions. Through analysis, dialogue and communication, Fauna & Flora International contributes to the development of conservation policy and behaviour within society, governments, the private sector, international agencies and non-governmental organizations.
As an international organization that directly supports local action, Fauna & Flora International is exposed to decision makers at all levels, from communities, through national policy and legislation to international conventions. We aim to ensure that policy reflects the needs at grass-root level, integrating the needs of biodiversity and people within development agendas.
By contributing to the development of conservation policy, increasing knowledge and influencing conservation behaviour we aim to improve linkages between field practice and the policy framework in four target forums – the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species, the Convention on Biological Diversity, the European Union and the international conservation community. We draw on lessons learned in over more than 100 years of conservation and work with regional and other partners to deliver specific policy improvements at national or international level.
