Vast landscapes and diverse societies: the protection of the world's last wild landscapes for society and nature.
Underpinned with innovations in nature finance, a Shared Earth Landscape (SEL) is an ecologically intact landscape integrating the needs of nature and people. Underpinned by investment and philanthropy, our SELs are where we pull all our programs together - The Human Spirit, Wildlife & Evolution, Wilderness Economies. We acquire or co-manage large areas of the Earth's wilderness and co-design our work with local communities to protect these places for future generations, for societal well-being and the long-term conservation of biodiversity. We also incorporate future food security - ultra low-impact conservation agriculture is an important component of our Shared Earth Landscapes.
The planet needs traditional protected areas and parks, but they will never be large enough. They will always be islands in an ocean of ecologically destructive activity. Our work is to unlock nature finance across private and government sectors to protect nature for future generations.
