Applications Are Now Open for the 2026 Future For Nature Awards!

The Future For Nature Foundation is on the lookout for the next three exceptional conservationists to receive the 2026 Future For Nature Award.
We are seeking natural leaders between the ages of 18 and 35 who have already made a tangible impact on the survival of wild species and the protection of nature.
Each year, passionate, talented, and driven young conservationists from around the globe apply for this prestigious award. Ultimately, three inspiring wildlife champions are selected. Winners receive not only a €50,000 prize to advance their conservation efforts, but also international recognition and access to a powerful global network of nature conservation professionals. They become part of the FFN Family—an inspiring community where they can connect, collaborate, and grow alongside like-minded peers.
