WWF works globally, regionally and locally. Our mission is to stop the degradation of our planet\u2019s natural environment and build a future in which people can live in harmony with nature. From high-level policy and advocacy work and on-the-ground conservation activities, to public involvement in environmental action and nurturing a green generation, we work with people from every sector and at every level to seek practical solutions which will achieve our goals. We strategically focus on conserving critical places and species that are of particular importance to their habitat or to humanity, and we devise programmes that aim to reduce the negative impacts of human activities.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Hong Kong is a unique place. This small territory is rich in biodiversity and at the same time, as an international finance and trading hub, we are also rich in monetary terms. There is so much to be done \u2013 and that can be done \u2013 in terms of preserving our local biodiversity, rethinking the way we consume, and educating and empowering people to play a part in conservation.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Together, we can create a sustainable future for humans and nature.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Since 1983, WWF has been managing the 380-heactare Mai Po Nature Reserve \u2013 as large as within 9,500 basketball courts \u2013 within the Inner Deep Bay.

“Built at the beginning of the 20th century and declared a heritage monument in 1983, Island House is home to 140 plant species, comprising a mixture of local and introduced species ranging from ferns to mature trees.” The Island House, formerly known as “Yuen Chau Tsai Island” was a round island located on the Toro Harbor in Tai Po East, New Territories. When the Hong Kong Government decided to use Tai Po as the Headquarters for all New Territories administration, they leveled the island to erect offices as well as staff accommodations and built a causeway to connecting the mainland.\u00a0 After WWII, the house became the official residence of 15 consecutive Distinct Commissioners; in 1986, WWF-HK was awarded the custodianship of the Island House, and charged with the responsibility for maintaining its cultural and national heritage. Now the house is a Conservation Studies Center.<\/p>\n
