The Wilderness Foundation recognises that sustained economic growth is a priority in South Africa; however, this growth continues to put pressure on the country’s natural resources. The Foundation believes that government and business leaders have an inherent responsibility to act as responsible custodians of the environment through best practice.
For over a decade, the Wilderness Foundation, together with strategic partners, has been developing environmental standards and information that can be used to brief and motivate individuals, governments and society at large towards the higher ideal of conservation. These standards are communicated through the various projects operating under the Wilderness Foundation’s Green Leaf Programme.
