Wildlife Conservation Society

WCS's goal is to conserve the world's largest wild places in 15 priority regions, home to more than 50% of the world's biodiversity. This is outlined in our 2020 strategy, which positions WCS to maintain its historic focus on the protection of species while developing an ambitious plan to engage with a rapidly changing world. WCS: 2020 represents our most careful thinking on our identity and purpose as a conservation organization, what we want to achieve, and which strengths and assets will help us have the most impact. We begin with this goal: To conserve the world's largest wild places in 15 priority regions, home to more than 50 percent of the world's biodiversity. Our mission, vision and values WCS: 2020, and its mission and vision statements, along with a set of core values, were developed to guide our team and to ensure that we hold ourselves to the highest standards.
