Environmental Defense Fund de México (EDF de México) is a non-profit, non-partisan civil society organization dedicated to finding solutions to the environmental challenges facing Mexico in terms of oceans, clean air and energy.

Since 2009 we have been working in collaboration with the productive sector to find the best solutions for prosperous communities, healthy oceans, better air quality and a more efficient energy sector. At the same time, we seek solutions with long-term benefits, so that Mexico can continue its global leadership on issues such as climate change and the sustainable use of its resources.

How We Get Results

Science: We support and promote the generation of information by collaborating with academics and scientists, government agencies and communities, for better decision-making.

Economy: We propose solutions that encourage changes in the economy that generate benefits for those who care for and depend on the environment.

Strategic Alliances: To generate solutions to challenges such as overfishing and climate change, we need to work together with different sectors. At EDF we understand that economic growth and protecting the planet are not mutually exclusive, which is why we seek allies in all sectors to help promote lasting and effective solutions.

Politics: We are a non-partisan organization and we work to achieve common goals and benefits for all of society and the environment. We provide elements that can help strengthen the legal framework on fishing, energy and climate change.

EDF de México is part of the Environmental Defense Fund, a global organization that for more than 50 years has sought transformative solutions to the most serious environmental problems of our time.

EDF de México is part of the Collective Impact Initiative for Mexican Fisheries and Aquaculture (ICPMX), a space for intersectoral dialogue to generate proposals and actions agreed upon by fishery and aquaculture producers, the private sector, the public sector, consumers, organized civil society and academia to improve the competitiveness, sustainability and equity of fishing and aquaculture in Mexico.
