Worldwide Fund for Nature Australia (WWF)

Rio Tinto and World Wide Fund for Nature Australia (WWF) signed a formal partnership agreement in late 1999, building on a long standing relationship between the two organisations. The partnership sought to develop a programme around frog conservation in Australia. The programme reached a successful end in September 2004. Rio Tinto and WWF Australia have agreed to continue working together on issues of mutual interest and concern, including the identification and implementation of joint water projects.
