Global Trees Campaign

The Global Trees Campaign developed by Fauna & Flora International (FFI) and WCMC aims to save the world's most threatened tree species and the habitats where they grow through information, conservation and wise use. The majority of globally threatened tree species are not yet subject to any specific conservation measures and this is why FFI and WCMC are taking action in collaboration with other international organisations and local partners.

The scientific basis for the Campaign is provided by the results of the Conservation and Sustainable Management of Trees project. Through the Global Trees Campaign gaps in current information on the conservation status of trees will be filled by field research and continued networking with experts worldwide. The Campaign will use this information to stimulate further conservation action.With the help of contributors to the project, a portfolio of over 20 priority tree conservation projects has already been identified. Work has begun on small-scale tree conservation projects in Brazil, Ethiopia, Haiti, Mexico and Malawi supported by FFI's 100% Fund.
