Climate change isn't a vision of our troubled future but the grim reality of our present. Conservation is the natural solution to the crisis. Keystone species are vital in sustaining healthy ecosystems. Without urgent action to protect them, we risk the catastrophic effects of the climate crisis.

    Situation

    The world is experiencing unprecedented rates of climate change. Whether intense tropical storms, forest fires, or severe droughts, its impact could erode the foundations of our economies, food security, health, and livelihoods. And it's exacerbated by environmental destruction, as carbon sinks like forests, wetlands, and their biodiversity are lost. These habitats and species protect us from the impact of climate change. Help DSWF safeguard a green future, for us, them, and our shared planet.

    Solution

    DSWF helps protect 178,000km2 of habitat across fifteen countries, protecting 8 keystone species. Our work mitigates the impacts of climatic events such as drought, flooding and fire whilst protecting vital areas for effective carbon sequestration. We help provide sustainable livelihoods for communities and our environmental education programmes engage 10,000+ people a year. By helping protect habitats, people, and wildlife impacted by climate change, we'll turn the tide on the climate crisis.
