Prints for Wildlife<\/a>, the international photography fundraiser supporting conservation efforts, is back with a new campaign, Edition Hope.

Prints for Wildlife organizers say the 2025 edition<\/a> comes at a crucial moment for global conservation. Many environmental programs are experiencing significant funding cuts, placing ecosystems, biodiversity, and community-based initiatives at risk.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn 2025, the crisis isn\u2019t a virus\u2014it\u2019s a withdrawal of critical funding for wildlife and conservation. Prints for Wildlife is more than a fundraiser\u2014it\u2019s a platform for connection, consciousness, and hope in a time of crisis,\u201d said Pie Aerts, co-founder of Prints for Wildlife.<\/p>\n

Co-founder Marion Payr highlighted the initiative\u2019s role in inspiring action through art. She explained that photography has a unique ability to bridge emotional connection and global awareness, allowing people everywhere to engage with the realities of conservation even if they are far removed from the landscapes and species at stake. By bringing together a diverse community of photographers and supporters, she said, Prints for Wildlife demonstrates how creative expression can translate into tangible impact for nature.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe know many people feel powerless in the face of these changes. But there is power in photography. There is power in community. And above all there is still hope,\u201d Payr said.<\/p>\n
