| OUR DONORS |
The work of the World Conservation Union is made possible through the generosity, trust and confidence of a growing number of partners: governments, bilateral development assistance agencies, multilateral and intergovernmental institutions, international conventions and nongovernmental organizations, foundations, corporations and individuals. We are most grateful for all the contributions received in 2005 to support the Union’s work.
The Union signed new framework agreements with the Netherlands, Norway and Sweden, following the signature of the 2005–2008 Joint General Framework Agreement by Denmark and Switzerland in 2004. A one-year agreement was signed with Canada. France joined the framework agreement donors as a new long-term supporter of the Union. The agreement was signed in November 2005 at the office of the Permanent Mission of France to the United Nations in Geneva.
“France and the Union share the fundamental conviction that conservation and the sustainable use of natural resources are key to life on earth, and that these are essential for the fight against poverty. Through this agreement, IUCN will increase its conservation activities in the francophone regions of the world, upon which French development assistance is focused.”
