Application deadline: July 18, 2025

Faith institutions bring unique assets to ecosystem restoration, controlling 8% of global habitable land according to the World Resources Institute and possessing extensive educational networks. Their distinctive strengths include framing restoration as spiritual-environmental transformation, maintaining multi-generational commitments, and mobilizing communities through religious infrastructure like sacred lands and pilgrimage routes.

WWF’s Beliefs & Values Programme are the lead knowledge partners for this advanced masterclass that will equip faith leaders and faith-based organizations with practical knowledge, skills, and resources to implement effective land restoration initiatives on faith-owned lands. The aim is to scale land restoration by faith actors by leveraging their distinctive capabilities and extensive networks.
