In many instances, these relationships have allowed for more effective project implementation by enhancing IUCN staff’s ability to engage with local communities at a level that would otherwise have been difficult and time-consuming to achieve.
IUCN takes a broad view of partnership, recognizing any organization or institution with which it collaborates in one way or another to achieve project results as a partner.
Partners in each country under each project (ongoing and recently completed) are split into two groups. The first cluster includes organizations that are either co-financing or directly involved in joint activity implementation with IUCN. The second are groups that IUCN has supported with or required support from to carry out project activities. Primary financiers are listed directly below project titles.
