The Nature Conservancy Mexico

The Nature Conservancy (TNC) is one of the world’s most influential and experienced conservation organizations, with nearly seven decades dedicated to protecting nature and the resources on which all life depends. Working collaboratively with communities, governments, companies, and civil society, TNC applies science-based strategies to safeguard ecosystems while promoting sustainable development. The organization combines cutting-edge conservation research with practical, community-driven solutions to address today’s most urgent environmental challenges.

Mexico has been a strategic hub for TNC since 1986 due to its extraordinary biological diversity, cultural richness, and ecological importance. In this region, TNC México focuses on protecting critical lands, forests, rivers, and marine habitats, while supporting sustainable livelihoods and empowering local communities to manage natural resources responsibly. Their work ranges from restoring degraded ecosystems and improving watershed management to developing climate-resilient practices, strengthening protected areas, and collaborating with Indigenous and rural communities that have historically safeguarded nature.

With a global presence in more than 81 countries, TNC leverages international expertise to drive large-scale conservation impact. In Mexico, this translates into integrated, science-driven projects that protect biodiversity, ensure the long-term availability of clean water, improve climate resilience, and support sustainable land-use planning. Their mission—to conserve the lands and waters on which all life depends—guides every initiative, making TNC a key actor in safeguarding Mexico’s natural heritage for future generations.
