Securing healthy landscapes
We work in carefully targeted areas to make positive change – at scale – for the environment, people, and wildlife. We seek to improve people’s livelihoods whilst also protecting critical ecosystems.
The challenge
Many of Malawi’s landscapes are degraded by deforestation, encroachment and pollution, with climate shocks causing further biodiversity and habitat loss. Droughts and floods, exacerbated by deforestation, cause devastating loss of life and damage to livelihoods. We urgently need to find solutions that enable people to earn an income and improve their quality of life without further damaging Malawi’s fragile ecosystems.
OUR PRIORITIES
ecosystems
We work with the Government of Malawi to identify priority landscapes and ecosystems in need of support.
biodiversity
We design and deliver interventions which support national and international biodiversity targets and national development goals.
livelihoods
We combine conservation and livelihoods approaches to tackle biodiversity loss and poverty in an integrated way.
Our work is bold and wide-ranging
We take a holistic approach that benefits both people and wildlife
