WE WORK AT EVERY LEVEL, FROM REMOTE VILLAGES TO THE OFFICES OF PRESIDENTS AND CEOS, TO HELP MOVE WHOLE SOCIETIES TO VALUE AND ACCOUNT FOR NATURE'S ROLE IN HUMAN WELL-BEING AND TO CHART A HEALTHIER, MORE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT PATH. WE FOCUS OUR EFFORTS ON THREE AREAS: 1. WE WORK TO PROTECT OUR NATURAL WEALTH: WE IDENTIFY AND PROTECT THE SPECTACULAR BUT VULNERABLE PLACES ON LAND AND AT SEA THAT ARE ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT TO HUMANITY-THE PLACES THAT PROVIDE OUR FOOD, WATER AND THE AIR WE BREATHE. 2. WE FOSTER EFFECTIVE GOVERNANCE: WE ENGAGE WITH GOVERNMENTS TO ENSURE THAT LEADERS HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE AND TOOLS THEY NEED TO SUSTAINABLY MANAGE THEIR NATURAL WEALTH FOR THE LONG-TERM WELL-BEING OF THEIR PEOPLE. 3. WE PROMOTE SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS: WE WORK WITH COMPANIES-PARTICULARLY THOSE THAT HAVE BIG GLOBAL FOOTPRINTS IN INDUSTRIES LIKE MINING, ENERGY AND AGRICULTURE-TO ENSURE THAT THE PRODUCTION OF VITAL GOODS AND SERVICES CONTINUES TO FLOW AND SUPPORTS ECONOMIC GROWTH WITHOUT UNDERCUTTING NATURE'S ABILITY TO SUPPORT HUMANITY. CI'S WORK HELPS PEOPLE THRIVE-PARTICULARLY THE MOST VULNERABLE SECTORS OF SOCIETY, WHO ARE OFTEN DIRECTLY RELIANT ON NATURE FOR THEIR SURVIVAL.

OVER TIME, THIS LEADS TO LASTING CHANGE AND SAFEGUARDS THE NATURAL ASSET BASE NEEDED TO SECURE AN ENDURING FLOW OF NATURE'S BENEFITS FOR GENERATIONS TO COME.
