Nature Data Lab

There is an immediate need for philanthropic funding to support critical research and technology efforts focused on the state of the world's biodiversity and ecosystems. Recent cuts in U.S. federal research grants have had a ripple effect globally, with numerous scientific efforts stalled due to the loss of core funding flows.

This comes at the worst possible time. With less than five years remaining to achieve the goals of the UN Global Biodiversity Framework – humanity's "Hail Mary" to halt and reverse species extinctions – governments, philanthropists, and the private sector are all scrambling for high-quality data to inform their decision making.

The Nature Data Lab is working to fill this gap by supporting some of the brightest scientists on the planet in their research and monitoring efforts across our four main program areas. In addition, core support is needed for the Global Safety Net (GSN3) initiative, which is the only online platform mapping the extent of natural lands globally.
