PARTNERSHIPS
Biodiversity conservation will only be possible if all social and economic sectors work as a team.
Climate change is the greatest challenge we face today; our future depends on our ability to join forces and work hand in hand.
From the Foundation for the Conservation of the Bearded Vulture we work at national level with multiple actors in conservation projects, awareness and denunciation campaigns, as well as in environmental education with the aim of expanding our impact and strengthening conservation work.
In addition, we are part of different networks and working groups dedicated to improving environmental practices, strengthening research on the conservation of species, or promoting sustainable rural development, among many other issues.
We are members of:
