Legacy Landscapes Fund

About us

LLF was founded to address the biodiversity financing gap by sourcing significant and sustained funding from both public and private donors, thus contributing to conserving biodiversity within a post-2020 framework under the Convention of Biological Diversity (CBD). LLF focuses on supporting professional partnerships between experienced NGOs and protected area authorities (or custodians of the land), as well as indigenous and local communities with the goal of managing terrestrial conservation areas effectively and sustainably.

Our vision is a global network of sustainably funded and effectively managed conservation areas helping to halt the dramatic loss of biodiversity in outstanding legacy landscapes.

Our mission is to safeguard biodiversity by promoting nature conservation and the preservation of ecosystem services in globally significant conservation areas, while working with local communities and respecting their rights and needs.
