Conservation Strategy Fund
Conservation Strategy Fund "uses economics and strategic thinking to help conserve natural ecosystems around the globe. Our approach involves helping local conservationists use analytical tools to find smart, efficient solutions to the most urgent environmental problems. We train environmental professionals from the tropics in a focused package of practical skills, and also work with groups directly in the field. Since its creation in 1998, CSF has concentrated on forests and rivers in the tropics, where extraordinarily high levels of biological diversity are found. To maximize the reach and quality of our work, we have involved leading experts and conservation organizations in all of our projects. CSF is a non-profit, tax-exempt organization." [1]
