The Employment Company

Over the past 60 years, WWF has grown into the largest and most influential independent conservation organisation in the world. We have over five million supporters globally and we operate in more than 100 countries. On 29 June 1978, WWF was established in Australia, with just three staff working out of an old factory in Sydney.

The conservation budget for our first year of operation was around $80,000. Today, we're the nation's largest conservation organisation, with just under 1.3 million supporters and numerous projects underway throughout Australia and the Oceania region.
