The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) is the world's largest and most diverse environmental network, consisting of national and subnational governments, non-governmental organizations, and indigenous peoples organizations from over 160 countries. With a powerful union of members, IUCN provides technical advice, scientific evaluations, and convening support to drive conservation and sustainable development. They work towards protecting biodiversity, addressing climate change, promoting nature-based solutions, and ensuring the sustainable use of natural resources.
IUCN's core components include expert commissions, a dedicated secretariat, and a council that collectively work towards informing policy, supporting conservation action, and implementing initiatives such as the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species and the IUCN Green List of Protected and Conserved Areas. Through their extensive network and global presence, IUCN strives to mobilize the entire union and unite efforts in preserving nature for a sustainable future.
