Globally, only 5 percent of the natural lands at high risk of development are protected. Demands on land and water continue to increase, so we must do more, fast.
The Nature Conservancy has led the way in saving many of the most iconic landscapes on Earth. Together, we can secure healthy food and clean water for all people without sacrificing the environment.
Globally, we're fostering innovations in technology, collaborating with communities to use resources more efficiently and promoting policies that enable sustainability.
In Australia, we’re helping to create a more sustainable Murray-Darling Basin—often referred to as the ‘Food Bowl of Australia’—and protecting important landscapes across our country.
TNC supports Australia's commitment to 30x30
In November 2023, The Nature Conservancy, Pew, the Australian Land Conservation Alliance (ALCA) and WWF-Australia released the 'Pathways to 30x30' report. It gives four clear recommendations in order to reach 30x30.
Places We Protect
The Blue Carbon Opportunity
Harnessing the powerful carbon capture abilities of coastal wetlands to fight climate change.
Key strategies
Exploring Gayini - Nari Nari Country
Managing Country for conservation, sustainable agriculture and Indigenous heritage
Protecting the Kimberley’s Fitzroy River region
The mighty Fitzroy River in the Kimberley Region of far north Western Australia runs through the rugged and beautiful traditional Country of the Nyikina and Mangala people. It is part Australia's northern tropical savanna, considered the largest intact savanna in the world with globally-significant biodiversity.
Restoring wetlands to fight climate change
Harnessing the powerful carbon capture abilities of coastal wetlands.
Creating a sustainable Murray-Darling
We’re balancing agriculture, finance and the environment.
