We protect nature for the benefit of humanity. We spotlight and secure the most important places in nature for the climate, for biodiversity and for people.

Indigenous Peoples, through their deep-rooted connection with and knowledge of their land, are helping to conserve some of the most remarkable species on Earth. Yet, too often, their voices and contributions are overlooked. We’re working to change that. ⤵️ conservation.org/news/why-rare-…


A new baby red-shanked douc langur has been recorded with its parents on camera trap (hint: keep your eyes on the monkey to the left!)—an incredible sighting of one of Cambodia’s critically endangered primates.


In the foothills of the Andes, mountains meet the Amazon basin & forests of Alto Mayo thrum with life. Explore stories of the people – Indigenous communities, farmers, patrollers, bird watchers – who study, protect & farm the forests that sustain them. conservation.org/news/meet-the-…


The golden dart frog, one of the most poisonous animals on Earth, is of deep cultural importance to Colombia’s Eperãra Siapidaarã community. In partnership with @CIColombia, the community is working to restore nature & protect the frog’s habitat so it can continue to survive.


What does it take to find your calling? For Stephanie Kimball, @ConservationOrg Managing Director of Climate Strategy, a stormy night spent protecting sea turtle eggs led her from a career as a dentist to one shaping climate strategy around the world. conservation.org/news/my-why-fr…


“The ocean is one. The responsibility is one. This is the moment.” @ConservationOrg expert Haydée Rodriguez reflects on the High Seas Treaty, what it took to get here, what's next and why protecting it is ultimately about recognizing how connected we are. conservation.org/news/the-ocean…


Why is today different than all others? Because history has been made and the High Seas Treaty has entered into force! For @MonicaMedinaDC, @ConservationOrg Arnhold Fellow, this marks both a turning point & new beginning. It's time for ambition to meet accountability.


🎉The High Seas Treaty has officially entered into force!🎉 Haydée Rodriguez, Conservation International Senior Director, Blue Protection, explores this massive milestone for Earth’s oceans, what happens next and how we’re working to turn this agreement into equitable action.


The call of the pileated gibbon is a call-and-response concert, and for @ConservationOrg scientists, it's music to their ears. Using sound recordings and local expertise, gibbon songs are revealing a lot about one of Cambodia's last intact forests. conservation.org/news/scientist…


Around the world, seas are rising at a faster rate than at any time in recorded history. On average, sea levels are up to 9 inches higher than they were in the late 1800s — & climate change is to blame. But there’s more to the story than you might realize. conservation.org/blog/5-things-…


Headlines around the world report on the state of coral reefs and mass bleaching events putting them, as well as the biodiversity that rely on coral for their survival, at risk. But what on Earth is coral bleaching? Here’s what you need to know: conservation.org/blog/what-on-e…

Beneath moss & flooded forests, within layers of roots & peat, lies a carbon vault that has been sealed for millennia. New @ConservationOrg research shows that while much of this carbon is slipping away, a wave of protection is beginning to slow the loss: conservation.org/news/protected…


A team of divers recently removed the largest ever individual piece of “ghost gear” from the ocean. Dive into this landmark effort to remove an abandoned fishing net nearly the size of a soccer pitch. conservation.org/news/off-mexic…


An epic @KonservasiID and @oceanx-led aerial survey off western Sumatra documented killer whales and pygmy killer whales there for the first time! But with 93% of whale & dolphin hotspots in the region outside of current & proposed MPAs, expanding ocean protection is critical.


A rare sighting of a baby whale shark off the coast in Indonesia could mean big things for ocean conservation. @KonservasiID researchers confirm Indonesia’s 1st recorded baby whale shark, one of the smallest free-swimming whale sharks documented globally. conservation.org/news/rare-newb…


Women are protecting bees & finding financial success in Kenya’s Chyulu Hills. This dual approach to conservation & economic independence is yielding tangible benefits for both nature & the community. @MaasaiWild @biglifeafrica @SheldrickTrust @kwskenya @KeForestService


In Kenya's Chyulu Hills, we are working with communities turn nature into a lifeline for education, health and well-being. conservation.org/climate/the-ai…


Centering women’s knowledge and experience can strengthen coastal conservation, a new study led by Conservation International finds. And they explore what it will take to make that shift. ‌‍ ‍conservation.org/news/in-coasta…


A blue of movement. A flash of fur. The glint of eyes in the dark. Deep in the mountains of Palawan, @ConservationOrg scientists are capturing what few people ever see: the secret lives of the Philippines’ rarest species. LEARN MORE: conservation.org/news/candid-ca…
