Emirates Nature-WWF

Overview

Emirates Nature in Association with WWF is a non-profit organisation and an environmental federal charity established to drive positive change in the United Arab Emirates to conserve the nation’s natural heritage. The organisation was founded in 2001 under the Honorary Founder and President of Emirates Nature-WWF, H.H. Sheikh Hamdan bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the Ruler’s Representative in the Al Dhafra Region and Chairman of the Governing Board of the Environment Agency‒Abu Dhabi, as a legacy of the late Sheikh Zayed’s vision for the UAE.

For two decades, Emirates Nature–WWF has been a prominent and active partner in environmental conservation in the MENA region. They work in association with WWF, one of the world’s largest and most respected independent conservation organisations, present in 100 countries and supported by 5 million members.

As a local conservation think tank and volunteer platform, they empower, convene and mobilise civil society, government and business to support the UAE’s sustainability agenda and deliver transformative impact at scale for the benefit of people and planet.
