OUR VISION

Our vision is rooted in protecting wilderness and wildlife, prioritizing the expansion of terrestrial and marine protected areas for the conservation of biodiversity. We see the loss of biodiversity as the greatest crisis of our time and work to protect large, connected wild landscapes, restoring all native plant and animal species.

WHERE WE WORK

We’re currently working in North and South America to designate wilderness, create parklands and rewild landscapes. Each landscape we work to protect has important cultural, historical and ecological values that make our projects unique.

RIO PASCUA PROJECT

This future one-million acre protected area in southern Chile will save endangered Huemul deer habitat, the Pascua River watershed and the history of the pioneers.

KATALALIXAR PROJECT

This future four-million acre national park and marine reserve in southern Chile will protect the land, sea and cultural values of a globally pristine archipelago.

RUTA DE LOS PIONEROS PROJECT

This future protected area in southern Chile will permanently protect a historic route of the local pioneers, Huemul habitat and the San Lorenzo area.

Leadership

Wild Ecosystems Conservation Initiative is directed by an experienced group of wilderness advocates and conservationists. Our team works rigorously for biodiversity, expanding protected areas to fight the sixth mass extinction crisis.
