WWF Arctic Programme

The WWF Arctic Programme is an initiative focused on protecting the Arctic's unique environment and ecosystems. It works to conserve Arctic wildlife such as polar bears, whales, and seals, and promotes sustainable practices in shipping, fishing, and resource extraction. The programme also addresses climate change impacts, like melting ice, which threaten habitats and communities. By collaborating with governments, Indigenous peoples, and local organizations, WWF aims to ensure a healthy, resilient Arctic now and for future generations. Its goal is a balanced approach that supports both nature and human livelihoods in this fragile region.
