Award

The Future For Nature Award is a prestigious international award that celebrates tangible achievements in protecting wild species.

The Future For Nature aims to:

Reward and fund individuals for their outstanding efforts in the protection of species of wild species
Stimulate Award winners to sustain their dedicated work
Help winners to raise their profile, extend their professional network and strengthen their funding basis

The winners each receive 50,000 euro and the prestigious FFN Award. The winners may spend the money at their own discretion in the service of nature conservation; after all, they know better than anyone where the money is most needed. Additionally, Future For Nature offers much more than one-off financial support.

Winning the FFN Award gives the winners international recognition for their work and opens doors that were previously closed.
FFN offers the winners a platform and brings their stories to the attention of conservationists, financiers and a wide audience, allowing them to increase their impact and gain more access to funds.
We also give the (former) winners an extra stage via the Future For Nature Academy. This is an independently functioning committee, which is active in several Dutch cities for and by students with the aim of inspiring students to become active in nature conservation and to offer them resources such as lectures, networking and workshops.
FFN is building a growing Family of (previous) winners, dedicated people who form a community of like-minded people. FFN offers them the opportunity to meet each other and continue to learn with each other in order to continue their fight for nature as efficiently and effectively as possible.
