Fundación Vida Silvestre Argentina
Fundación Vida Silvestre Argentina (Argentine Wildlife Foundation) is a civil association founded on June 29, 1977, working to address the main environmental issues in Argentina. Its mission is to propose and implement solutions for nature conservation, promote the sustainable use of natural resources, and encourage responsible behavior in the context of climate change. The foundation achieves its goals through various actions, including the protection of natural areas, advocating for environmental legislation, promoting awareness and education, and encouraging responsible consumption and production.Since 1988, Vida Silvestre has represented the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) in Argentina, the largest conservation organization globally.
Vida Silvestre's vision is to create a world where human beings develop in harmony with nature. Currently, the organization focuses its efforts on five priority eco-regions in Argentina due to their rich biodiversity and endangered status. These regions include the Upper Paraná jungle in the Atlantic Forest, the Gran Chaco, the Pampas, the Argentine Sea and its shores, and Antarctica and the southern oceans.
Vida Silvestre operates two offices, located in Buenos Aires and Puerto Iguazú. Additionally, the organization manages two nature reserves: Urugua-í in Andresito, Misiones and San Pablo de Valdés in Valdés Peninsula, Chubut.
Fundación Vida Silvestre is a member of the Partner Circle of the Foundations Platform F20, which is an international network comprising foundations and philanthropic organizations. Provided by Wikipedia
