*Want to make a positive difference to the future of people and our one
shared home, the Earth? Working at WWF could be your opportunity of a
lifetime.*
All around the world, people are waking up to the deepening crisis of
nature loss. A growing realization that nature is our life-support system.
And that nobody will be spared from the impacts of its loss. Here at WWF,
we are helping to tackle this enormous global challenge.
Our people come from hugely diverse backgrounds and with a variety of
expertise, ranging from HR and finance to advocacy and conservation
science. We welcome applications from anyone who believes they can help us
create a better future for people and wildlife.
*What we do*
We are an independent conservation organization, striving to sustain the
natural world for the benefit of people and wildlife. From individuals and
communities to business and government, we are part of a growing coalition
calling on world leaders to set nature on the path to recovery by 2030.
Together, we seek to protect and restore natural habitats, stop the mass
extinction of wildlife, and make the way we produce and consume sustainable.
*About the USAID Biodiversity Conservation program *
The “USAID Biodiversity Conservation” activity is a 5 year-program starting
from July 2020 to June 2025. The program aims to maintain and increase
forest quality as well as protect and stabilize wildlife populations in
five high conservation value provinces (Quang Binh, Quang Nam, TT Hue,
Quang Tri, and Lam Dong). The program targets ten special use forests and
at least five protection forests, linking forest management units across
the landscape to maintain forest cover and connectivity of habitats vital
for the protection of Vietnam’s threatened and endemic species.
