Founded in 1961, the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) is an international non-governmental non-profit organisation dedicated to sustaining the natural world for the benefit of people and wildlife. It runs conservation operations in over 100 countries around the world.

Its current work is organised around six areas: food, climate, freshwater, wildlife, forests, and oceans.
WWF has invested over $1 billion in more than 12,000 conservation initiatives since 1995. The organisation works as a foundation, and in 2020, over half of its funding was generated from individual donations and bequests. It also receives financial support from international organisations and corporations.
