Where do we work?
We work in the most biodiverse places on the planet.
Our efforts are focused on connecting large landscapes, which we have organized in “mosaics” of protected areas and that helps us identify areas of connectivity due to their biological, ecosystem, and cultural importance in Latin America.
In Peru, we work within four Mosaics, or strategic geographic areas, Andes del Norte, Bosques Secos del Marañón, Carpish-Río Abiseo, and Nanay-Tigre.

What do we do?
Nature and Culture focuses on five complementary strategic areas to ensure that ecosystems can support current and future generations: Climate, Wild Places, Water, Species, and People.
Governments and local communities in Peru are motivated to protect their environments but often face financial, technical, and legal barriers. At Nature and Culture, we have a dedicated team of experts who work to overcome these barriers by collaborating directly with local communities and governments to create protected areas with long-term sustainable management plans.

Our local partners
Nature and Culture works together with universities, public and private institutions, communities, and local governments to protect biologically and culturally diverse landscapes. Our partners are fundamental to achieving our conservation objectives. We believe that conservation is only possible when working together with the people who live in the territories we aim to protect.
Our Team in Peru
We have field experts specializing in geography, law, and conservation who support communities, organizations, and local and national governments to protect biologically and culturally diverse landscapes.
