Global Nature Fund

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Global Nature Fund, established in 1998, is a private non-profit foundation with the stated goal of protecting the environment.[1] It is headquartered in Radolfzell, Germany.

The organization, which sponsors the Living Lakes Network, marks World Wetlands Day annually by designating a water body as "Threatened Lake of the Year".[2] In 2004 it signed a Memorandum of Cooperation with Ramsar.[3]
