The Adventure Travel Conservation Fund (ATCF) is proud to announce the 2025 Conservation Grant winners — six inspiring, community-driven projects from around the globe that are leading the way in protecting our planet’s most vulnerable ecosystems and cultural heritage. Selected through a highly competitive process by our members, these projects represent the heart of our mission: empowering local communities to drive lasting conservation impact. From safeguarding biodiversity and restoring habitats to strengthening climate resilience and cultural preservation, this year’s grantees showcase the power of collaboration between the global travel community and grassroots changemakers.  

The Adventure Travel Conservation Fund is excited to celebrate the five remarkable grant recipients who have shown extraordinary commitment to protecting our planet’s natural and cultural treasures. These community-driven organizations from Uganda, Kenya, Zimbabwe, Indonesia, Colombia, the Philippines, and Ghana were nominated by ATCF members during the fiercely competitive 2024 Conservation Grant Program. We had over 45 business members vote, one of our highest turnouts yet. Each of these trailblazing projects is deserving of recognition for their groundbreaking efforts to safeguard some of Earth’s most vital ecosystems.
