Partners in Conservation

Why did WildlifeoPedia become a ''Partner in Conservation'' at WWF?

WildlifeoPedia is proud to be a Partner in Conservation with WWF Australia — meaning we commit to giving at least AUD 1,000 each year to support their vital conservation work. This isn’t a formal institutional partnership with co-branding or big contracts, but it is a real pledge that helps enable WWF’s programs to protect, restore, and regenerate Australia’s natural environments. It means our efforts are invested, not just symbolic.

Becoming a Partner in Conservation means you’ll get access to a team of WWF experts, including a dedicated staff liaison you can contact directly by email or phone, to answer your questions and share deeper insights. You’ll be invited to special events, webinars, and sometimes even field experiences—so you really see the impact of your support up close. You’ll receive regular updates and in-depth impact reports from WWF-Australia, showing how nature is regenerating, which species are being protected, and what the measurable outcomes have been. As part of the community, you’ll also get WWF’s annual supporter calendar filled with stunning photos of wildlife and wild places you are helping protect, plus news and stories from the field that show your contribution in action. Being among other people who care deeply lets you connect with like-minded supporters and WWF leadership through online or in-person gatherings, where you can share, learn, and feel part of change.

WWF Australia’s “Partners in Conservation” community is made up of individuals who donate AUD $1,000 or more annually and thereby become champions for wildlife, people, and the planet. Because of this, WildlifeoPedia’s contribution folds into WWF’s ability to scale projects that are evidence-based, scientifically vetted, and managed in collaboration with local and Indigenous communities. It supports work not only with species you often hear about (koalas, gliders, quolls, etc.) but also with ecosystems under threat — reefs, forests, freshwater systems, and the Sky-Country-Saltwater triad that WWF uses to describe Australia’s land, air, and marine environments.

Being a Partner means more than just giving money; it means connection and accountability. WWF Australia promises Partners regular updates, impact reports, invitation to special events/webinars, direct access to experts, and insights into exactly what is being achieved, where. For example, WWF has used donor funds to plant tens of thousands of native trees to restore habitats, to strengthen laws protecting forests, to rescue and rehabilitate wildlife after disasters like bushfires, to support threatened species recovery - and much more...

Your involvement with WildlifeoPedia at this level means your support gets multiplied. Because WWF Australia is involved in big-picture things like increasing protected areas (e.g. aiming to protect 30% of land and sea by 2030, and doubling koala populations by 2050) and regenerating large landscapes, even small sums — when pooled with others — help shape national policy, protect habitats, prevent extinctions, and restore nature after damage. It also means you get to be part of the story: hearing about wildlife hospitals being scaled, seeing drone-seeding of native forests, witnessing legislative wins, and knowing where each dollar goes.

We don’t pretend this solves everything. Australia has high rates of species threatened with extinction, recurring natural disasters (fires, floods, coral bleaching), and ecosystems already pushed to the brink. But by committing at this “Partners in Conservation” level, WildlifeoPedia is saying: we want to be part of sustained, strategic effort. We believe in measurable change over time. And we invite people like you — interested, caring, and ready to act — to join in. Whether through donations, raising awareness, or sharing what you learn, you get to help generate real impact: protecting animals, restoring habitat, strengthening nature laws, and helping our planet’s ecosystems be more resilient against a constantly-changing (human) world.
