Global Network
With our global hub at Stanford University, the Natural Capital Project is a collaboration with the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, the Stockholm Resilience Centre, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the University of Minnesota, Natural Capital Insights, The Nature Conservancy, and World Wildlife Fund.
We advance science and create actionable tools to bring the values of nature into decisions. Our work is inspired by, created with, and implemented through our global network of more than 150 research organizations and more than 350 practitioner organizations in the public and private sectors.

Network Collaborators (Partial List)
In addition to working with our core collaborators, we work directly with governments, corporations, universities, and other non-profit organizations to co-lead "use cases," integrate ecosystem services approaches into major natural resource decisions, and improve the state of biodiversity and human well-being by motivating greater and more cost-effective investments in both.
