Our mission
The Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation is a global non-profit organisation committed to progressing Planetary Health for present and future generations.

The Foundation aims to bring humanity together to empower impactful solutions for our planet's biodiversity, climate, ocean and water resources. It works in three main geographical areas : the Mediterranean Basin, the Polar Regions and the Least developed countries.

Foundation around the world
Since it was set up, the Foundation has opened several representative offices around the world to broaden its influence: in France and the UK in 2007, Switzerland, the US and Canada in 2008, and Germany and Italy in 2009. In 2011, Singapore joined its list of offices, followed by Spain in 2016. In 2019, it was China's turn to open an office in Beijing. The most recent office opened in São Paulo, Brazil, in 2023.
With these 11 foreign branches, the Foundation now benefits from a strong international network to support its initiatives and extend the impact of its work.
