The French Facility for Global Environment (FFEM)
The French Facility for Global Environment supports innovative projects in favour of the environment in developing countries. Created in 1994 by the French government following the first Earth Summit, it has already supported 333 projects in over 120 countries, two-thirds of them in Africa.
The FFEM works in partnership with public, private or civil society actors, both from the north and the south, with other donors and international organizations. The projects it finances generate local environmental, social and economic benefits. They help preserve biodiversity, climate, international waters, lands and the ozone layer and fight against chemical pollution. The particularity of the FFEM: to rely on pilot projects to learn from them and disseminate their innovations on a larger scale.
Established in 2017, the Audemars-Watkins Foundation (FAW) is a private philanthropic organisation registered under Swiss law. It was founded out of the desire of its founder and chair, Ms Jasmine Audemars, to play a proactive role in environmental conservation.
Its vision? To strive for a planet where forests, oceans and freshwater are healthy and capable of providing multiple benefits to both humans and nature.
The FAW currently supports projects in Switzerland and internationally focused on the conservation of the oceans, freshwater and forests, and aims to initiate, encourage or fund broader educational projects that are not solely related to the environment.
