The World Land Trust (WLT) is an international conservation organisation that takes direct action to save rainforest and other wildlife habitats — we help local organisations buy it, acre by acre.
The land purchased by the World Land Trust is protected indefinitely as private reserves owned and managed by local organisations for the benefit of both wildlife and people.
Patrons: Sir David Attenborough CH FRS and David Gower OBE.
