World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) Nepal

World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), also known as World Wildlife Fund in US and Canada, is one of the worlds' largest and most respected independent conservation organizations. With almost five million supporters throughout five continents, WWF has a global network active in over 90 countries and can safely claim to have played a major role in the evolution of the international conservation movement. Since 1985, WWF has invested over US$1,165 million in more than 11,000 projects in 130 countries. All these play a part in the campaign to stop the accelerating degradation of Earth's natural environment, and to help its human inhabitants live in greater harmony with nature.

Nepal has been a pivotal country for WWF ever since the organization first provided support to conserve the Greater one-horned rhinoceros (Rhinoceros unicornis) and the Bengal tiger (Panthera tigris tigris) in the late 1960s. At present, WWF Nepal's major projects, TAL, KCAP, SCAFP and NMCP, are concentrated in the 4 Global 200 ecoregions and link WWF's global priority to the conservation needs of Nepal.
