In almost 5 decades, WWF (formerly known as the World Wildlife Fund) has become one of the world's largest and most respected independent conservation organizations. As the world’s leading conservation organization, we have a hugely important mission. We’re here to stop the degradation of our planet’s natural environment, and build a future where people live in harmony with nature. We do this by: – protecting biodiversity – the magnificent array of living things that inhabit our planet and the places where they live – reducing humanity’s footprint on the natural world by challenging wasteful consumption and pollution, and promoting sustainable ways to use the Earth’s resources.

Le WWF International, dont le siège social est en Suisse, est le plus important organisme indépendant voué à la conservation de la nature au monde. Afin d'accomplir sa mission, le WWF coopère avec de nombreux partenaires, y compris des gouvernements, des organismes non gouvernementaux, le secteur privé et des individus. Le WWF concentre ses efforts de conservation sur trois éléments desquels dépend en grande partie la vie : la forêt, l'eau douce ainsi que l'océan et le littoral. À l'échelle du globe, le WWF travaille de plus à la réduction de l'émission des gaz à effet de serre qui modifie le climat à l'échelle mondiale et menace notre survie.
