ABOUT CEPF OUR STRATEGY NEWS WHERE WE WORK PROJECT DATABASE APPLY FOR GRANTS

Where We Work The Critical Ecosystem Partnership Fund (CEPF) provides funding and technical assistance to civil society groups in Earth's biodiversity hotspots. The hotspots are the biologically richest yet most threatened places. CEPF focuses on select hotspots in the developing world and strategically targets priority areas in the hotspots for maximum impact.

Hotspots are home to more than 1.8 billion people, many of whom depend directly on healthy lands for their livelihoods and well-being. Learn more about hotspots.
