How does WWF decide where to engage on population issues?
WWF works on population issues at the global scale because of the impacts of global population growth on biodiversity, natural resources and human welfare. At the local and regional levels, WWF determines its population actions based on global population trends analyses indicating priority areas for action; place-based evidence that there is population pressure on resources, or concern that it will occur; and community requests for support. We also take into account the availability of donor support for particular areas.
