World Land Trust is a UK registered charity. Acting on its tagline of "Saving Land, Saving Species", the trust raises money to buy and then protect environmentally-threatened land, and therefore species, in Africa, Asia, and Central and South America. Since 1989, 1.1 million ha have been directly saved across all WLT programmes. A further 1.3 million ha have been co-funded by WLT. At the time of writing, 2,361,353 ha have been protected by WLT partners in all and 11,452,226 ha have been connected by WLT-funded corridors and extensions.
