Ask a room full of people to define urban conservation, and you’ll get a dozen different answers. But one thing’s for certain: you know it when you see it. Urban conservation focuses on transforming neighborhoods into greener, healthier spaces while addressing challenges like climate change, biodiversity loss, and inequitable access to nature.

Urban conservation creates opportunities for everyone to experience the benefits of nature, even in the densest city blocks.
