Plantlife speaks up for wild plants and fungi on the world stage. We campaign for global strategies for nature, people and the climate to include the restoration of native wild plant and fungi species and habitats – for a healthy, diverse, plant rich world.
Our goal is that the United Nations, governments and other international institutions take action for the conservation of wild plants and fungi to tackle the climate, biodiversity and societal challenge we face right across our only planet.
Plantlife is at the heart of a growing global network of scientists, policy makers, conservation organisations, local and indigenous communities, working to bridge the gap from knowledge to conservation action on the ground.
Plantlife has worked closely with other members of the Global Partnership for Plant Conservation (GPPC) to establish a set of complementary Global Plant Actions related to plant conservation for the new GSPC.
Important Plant Areas (IPAs) are at the heart of our global action for wild plants and fungi. They are the key sites in the world for exceptional botanical richness, rare, threatened and socio-economically valuable plant species and rare and threatened habitats.
Plantlife developed the first IPA criteria in 2001, and these are now being applied in over 50 countries around the world.
At Plantlife, we are focused in gaining recognition for grassland ecosystems around the world as nature-based solutions to the climate crisis.
Storing between 25-35% of the world’s terrestrial carbon, they are an underutilised resource. We work with several international organisations in calling on world governments to recognise their value on a global scale.
We’re thrilled that the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation was adopted at COP16. Just returned from Cali, Colombia – our Global Advocacy Officer Claire Rumsey tells us more
The peat-rich Flow Country, which our Munsary Peatlands are part of, has been given the same standing as the Great Barrier Reef and the Grand Canyon.
As COP28 draws to a close, it's not just about fossil fuels. We will keep showing that wild plants and fungi need to be central to the climate solution.
