The Wilderness Society

About

The Wilderness Society is an Australian, community-based, not-for-profit environmental advocacy organisation. Their core mission is to protect, promote, and restore wilderness and natural processes across Australia for the survival and ongoing evolution of life on Earth. They achieve this through frontline campaigning, political and media advocacy, and building a mass movement to address climate change and biodiversity crises.

Giving Philosophy

The Wilderness Society's giving philosophy is rooted in the belief that systemic change for environmental protection is achievable through sustained community action and advocacy. They aim to empower people to be a voice for nature and work towards transforming Australia into a society that protects and respects the natural world. Their work is primarily funded by individual Australians, enabling them to maintain independence in their environmental campaigns.

Tips for Applicants

As The Wilderness Society is an environmental advocacy and campaigning organisation rather than a traditional grant-making foundation, they do not have open grant programs for external applications. Support for their mission is best provided through donations, membership, or volunteering in their campaigns.
