Enabling Nature Conservation Together

Enabling Nature Conservation Together

Introduction

Environmental degradation and ecosystem collapse are threatening the health of humanity, the species we share our home with, and our planet’s longevity.

In 2020, Huawei and International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) launched the Tech4Nature global partnership to develop innovative tech solutions for protecting nature. Working with local partners across the globe, our journey so far has proven the value of tech, innovation, and partnerships in creating a sustainable home for future generations.

With a focus on Latin America, this year’s Tech4Nature summit in Mexico explores our current and next steps on the Tech4Nature journey.

Be part of the conversation and join the livestream at 9:30 (15:30 UTC) on April 9, 2025 on the Huawei TECH4ALL X account
