Who We Are
Since 1951, The Nature Conservancy has worked to protect the lands and waters on which all life depends.
The Nature Conservancy is a global environmental nonprofit working to create a world where people and nature can thrive.
Founded in the U.S. through grassroots action in 1951, The Nature Conservancy (TNC) has grown to become one of the most effective and wide-reaching environmental organizations in the world. Thanks to more than a million members and the dedicated efforts of our diverse staff and over 1,000 scientists, we impact conservation in 81 countries and territories: 40 by direct conservation impact and 41 through partners.
