The World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), established in 1961 and initially known as the World Wildlife Fund in Canada and the United States, is a prominent Swiss-based international non-governmental organization dedicated to wilderness preservation and mitigating human impact on the environment. Operating in over 100 countries with more than five million supporters worldwide, WWF oversees approximately 3,000 conservation and environmental projects, having invested over $1 billion in over 12,000 conservation initiatives since 1995. Funded primarily by individuals and bequests (65%), government sources (17%), and corporations (8%), WWF strives to halt environmental degradation and foster a future where humans coexist harmoniously with nature. Through initiatives like the Living Planet Report, Earth Hour, and Debt-for-nature swap, WWF focuses its efforts on food, climate, freshwater, wildlife, forests, and oceans, though it has faced criticism for its corporate associations and its impact on local communities.
