Nature underpins our global economy and well-being, supporting food systems, fresh water, climate regulation, and recreation, among many other products and services. Yet nature is not valued in the market economy, which results in poorly aligned incentives and inadequate financing. The Conservation Finance Alliance (CFA) uses the power of finance and economics to design, establish, and scale finance mechanisms and incentives that can turn the tide of ecosystem loss and degradation towards the conservation and restoration of nature, along with the enhanced well-being of individuals and societies.

The CFA is the leading professional association for conservation finance experts and practitioners around the world. The CFA works with international partners, from banks to government to philanthropy, to achieve sustainable finance for nature.

Your generosity allows the CFA to build global capacity in conservation finance, ensuring a future for coral reefs, protected areas, endangered species, as well as nature-based mechanisms to curb climate change. Your support is essential to achieve these sustainable conservation outcomes.

The Wildlife Conservation Society hosts the Conservation Finance Alliance Secretariat, receiving and managing financial contributions on behalf of the CFA and providing legal, administrative and other support.

When you donate to Wildlife Conservation Society and direct your contribution to the CFA (through donating on this page), you will help advance sustainable finance mechanisms designed to achieve long-term impact to protect our planet’s vital resources. Thank you.
