Why Take Action
“We’ve only got one Earth. Our most critical investment is in the planet that we depend on.”
Jim Phillipson, Rendere Environmental Trust
Time to Act
Nature is under mounting pressure, with the dual climate and biodiversity crises demanding our immediate attention. If we are to protect our unique places and species in Australia, maintain our quality of life and support our economy over the long-term, we must urgently conserve nature and protect biodiversity.
The international 30×30 campaign calls for the protection and management of 30% of the world’s land, fresh waters and oceans by the end of this decade. As funders, we need to act swiftly and intentionally, keeping this rallying call at the forefront of our minds.
Better Together
Determining the best way to meet the significant needs of nature – and the organisations that protect and restore nature – is a challenging task for funders. Our collective helps members to bring their resources to the table in the most meaningful and impactful way.
By uniting like-minded funders and pooling our resources, Nature Impact Collective invests collectively in expert guidance and support to identify areas where we can make the biggest difference for nature. We harness significant funds and direct them to environmental organisations with exceptional leadership and the potential to deliver powerful outcomes.
Nature Impact Collective is a unique opportunity for philanthropists who value working with like minded funders to leverage their giving.
