Our values
We aim high: We deliver high quality work with urgency that will have real impact.
We are collaborative: We work with and recognize others to simplify the landscape to reach better outcomes for people and the planet.
We are inclusive: We employ and work with people and stakeholders from different backgrounds and geographies.
We are open: We listen, learn and bring light-heartedness to our work without underestimating the challenges we face.
Business for Nature is legally and fiscally hosted at Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors. Business for Nature's work is made possible by the generous financial support from Porticus, the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation (via the World Economic Forum’s Nature Action Agenda), L’Occitane Fund, and occasional support from other organizations.
We would also like to thank those organizations that have contributed previously, namely the Global Environment Facility (GEF) - in partnership with Conservation International (CI) as a designated GEF Agency, the European Commission, Foundation Hans Wilsdorf, and the MAVA Foundation for providing funding to Business for Nature previously, as well as to the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) for having kindly hosted us from 2019-2022.
