Six programmes, one arch
Each programme is a stone in the arch. Together they hold conservation at the centre of ESG.
Science & Evidence Lab
Baselines, monitoring, remote sensing and open data.
ESG for Nature Advisory
IFC / World Bank-aligned biodiversity and social support for projects.
Community Stewardship
Co-managed conservation, eco-guards, agroforestry, benefit-sharing.
Keystone Youth Council
Votes, fellowships and youth-led research and enterprises.
Climate & Nature-based Solutions
Forest and peat protection, restoration, credible carbon accounting.
Learning & Capacity
Courses, field schools and open toolkits in French and English.
Communities as owners, not audiences
Local communities co-design, co-manage and share the benefits. Global evidence shows Indigenous peoples and local communities govern at least a third of the world’s land, and equitable governance delivers better conservation outcomes. 30x30 only works with their rights at the centre.
- Free, prior and informed consent as a starting point
