| World Wildlife Fund |
Established in 1961, WWF operates in more than 100 countries.
We are currently funding around 2,000 conservation projects and employ almost 4,000 people across the planet.
The organization is almost unique in that it has that local presence to global presence - talking to tribes of Baka pygmies in the central African rainforests, through to face-to-face discussions with institutions such as the World Bank and the European Commission.
But at every stage WWF works with local people, it works with partners, it works with its donors. Nothing - absolutely nothing - would have been possible or remain possible without them.
