The World Sustainability Foundation
A non-profit organization dedicated to advancing sustainability and protecting the environment and its species
About Us
The World Sustainability Foundation (WSF) is a non-profit Segment of the World Sustainability Organization (WSO) which aims to protect and improve the environment by promoting a culture of sustainable development.
Chaired by the economist and environmentalist Paolo Bray, some of the foundation’s commitments include land enhancement, protection of marine and terrestrial resources and habitats, and the development of campaigns to protect endangered species.
The World Sustainability Foundation is also active in the field of citizen awareness. Thanks to the assistance of experts, it provides outreach materials and support to companies with regard to sustainable production and new technologies.
The Foundation is already involved in tens of conservation projects worldwide, including those which it has established in Italy, Madagascar, Galapagos, Peru, Mongolia, and Vietnam. It does so through a collaborative network of states, institutions, research centers, universities, and businesses certified by Friend of the Sea® or Friend of the Earth®.
Give yourself and the planet a chance for a better future! Support the foundation’s projects by donating or selecting our certified products.

Conservation Projects
Not only has the WSF developed its conservation projects, but it also supports and collaborates with NGOs and local communities in protecting endangered marine and terrestrial species and landscapes. Raising public awareness is critical to start inverting the tendency and reducing the human impact on the environment.
