WWF INTERNATIONAL IS VERY GRATEFUL TO ALL OF
OUR PHILANTHROPIC PARTNERS FOR THEIR GENEROUS
AND CONTINUED SUPPORT: OUR WORK WOULD NOT BE
POSSIBLE WITHOUT IT. THE STORIES AND PROJECTS
IN THIS PUBLICATION HIGHLIGHT JUST SOME OF THE
FAR-REACHING RESULTS OF THEIR GENEROSITY.
WWF is tackling the global
threat to coral reefs with
philanthropic partner support.
Pictured are coral reefs in
the Tun Mustapha
Park, Malaysia.
To maximize the impact of philanthropic partnerships
in the decade for action 2030, WWF is launching new
partnership opportunities in the coming year. We are
proud to thank and recognize those who have supported
our work this year, and look forward to building on those
relationships as well as welcoming new partners in the
coming years under a refreshed structure.
HONORARY CIRCLE
In 2021, the Hoffmann Family and the MAVA
Foundation supported a range of programmes and
projects around the world, including efforts to protect
the Mediterranean. Here, MAVA is supporting local
stakeholders to develop financially sustainable no-take
fishing zones, and engage in policy and advocacy with the
EU and its members to reduce bycatch of marine species.
Elsewhere, MAVA continues to support the Luc Hoffmann
Institute and a New Deal for Nature and People, which is
WWF's call to strengthen global targets and mechanisms
that will halt the loss of nature by 2030.
Associação IEP is supporting the conservation of the
world's coral reefs, which are threatened by destructive
human impacts including climate change. WWF's rescue
strategy combines tried-and-tested interventions with
emerging innovations, as community-led conservation
develops nature-based solutions that can be widely
replicated and scaled up leading to a coral reef revival.
Also, support continues towards building momentum
on halting deep seabed mining, to improve international
commitments to conserve and sustainably use the oceans
in order to establish networks of well-managed protected
areas and strengthen the resilience of marine ecosystems.
Finally, support has also been dedicated towards
protecting Brazil's rare river dolphins.
This year, Stiftung Usine generously continued to
support our global and strategic conservation priorities.
Additionally, support has been dedicated towards our
work to slow the extent and pace of nature loss in the
Cerrado, Brazil. Here agriculture - most recently the rapid
expansion of soy and beef production - has driven the
loss of about half of its vegetation. However, recent efforts
have ensured bilateral agreements with international
companies to implement deforestation- and conversionfree
soy and beef in their supply chains, whilst our work
with local and Indigenous communities has strengthened
market access for native and sustainably produced
Cerrado products, benefitting more than 3,500 families.
