Regnskogfondet

RFN is a Norwegian NGO specialized in the protection of rainforests and the rights of people living in the rainforest. With 30 years of experience, it is one of the leading non-governmental organizations in its field, working for a world where the environment is protected and human rights are fulfilled. Our specific focus is the intersection of these two global concerns. We collaborate closely with more than 60 local and national environmental, indigenous and human rights organizations in 7 countries in the Amazon region, Central Africa, Southeast Asia, and Oceania. The core of our approach is to support a strong and vibrant civil society. We therefore build long-term partnerships and elaborate shared strategies with legitimate and representative local organizations, with the aim of enhancing their capacity and effectiveness.
