Established 20 June 2009, JTEF's mission is to conduct awareness programs and fundraising efforts in Japan for conservation of wildlife and their habitats. The funding is maintained separately in three conservation funds: Tiger, Elephant and Iriomote cat. For the Tiger and Elephant funds, the money collected in Japan, goes to programs conducted by our partner on the ground in India, Wildlife Trust India. At the same time, JTEF is conducting vital work in Japan on Iriomote Island to reduce the threats to Iriomote cats by conducting awareness programs and working with the community for night patrols and generating legislative policy to protect the natural resources. JTEF is the only NGO that is working for conservation of the critically endangered Iriomote cat (Prionailurus bengalensis iriomotensis) endemic only on the small Japanese Okinawan Island of Iriomote. Based on our founding philosophy, we will implement three pillars of wildlife conservation activities (preservation of habitats, education / awareness & policy recommendations). With a vision of a society where people and wild creatures can coexist, we uphold these three pillars of wildlife conservation activities for the Iriomote Cat, Elephants and Tigers. 1. Conservation activities in habitats where wildlife is being threatened by human beings. 2. Conduct Education/awareness programs to alert people to wildlife issues & take actions that support coexistence of people & wild creatures, no matter the distance from the actual habitat. 3. Promote policy proposals on conservation of wildlife to make the coexistence of people and wild creatures a key public policy in order to minimize damage done to nature.

Established in 1981, the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE) is one of the world's largest environmental education organisations, with over 100 member organisations in 81 countries. At the heart of the FEE are our five programmes. Coordinated by the Head Office in Copenhagen and implemented by our members around the world, our programmes aim to bring positive change on a global scale: The internationally recognized Eco-Schools programme engages young people in quality environmental education and meaningful action. Through a seven-step framework, pupils are empowered and motivated to drive change and improve environmental awareness in their school, local community and beyond. Close to 50,000 schools around the world are part of the Eco-Schools programme. Learning about Forests (LEAF) advocates for outdoor learning and hands-on experiences, allowing students to connect with nature and develop a deeper understanding of the natural world. While the LEAF programme started with a focus on tree-based ecosystems, today it includes a diversity of ecosystems to foster skills and knowledge by exposing learners to outdoor experiences. LEAF is implemented in 28 countries. Young Reporters for the Environment (YRE) is an award-winning programme that empowers young people to take an educated stand on environmental issues they feel strongly about and gives them a platform to articulate these issues through the media of writing, photography and video. Over 300,000 students engage in the YRE programme yearly. The iconic Blue Flag programme is one of the world's most recognized eco-tourism awards for beaches, marinas, and tourist boat operators. In order to qualify for the Blue Flag, a series of stringent environmental, educational, safety, and accessibility criteria must be met and maintained. Over 5,000 beaches, marinas and tourism boats are currently awarded. Green Key is a voluntary eco-certification programme. With more than 4,000 certified hotels and other establishments in 60 countries, Green Key is the leading standard for excellence in the field of environmental responsibility and sustainable operation within the tourism and hospitality industry. With 40 years of impactful experience in Education for Sustainable Development (ESD), FEE's strategic plan - GAIA 20:30 - prioritises climate action across all five programmes to address the urgent threats of climate change, biodiversity loss and environmental pollution. FEE's Environmental Education Principles The member organisations of FEE have agreed upon these principles to guide our work towards excellence in EE/ESD: 1. Ensure that participants are engaged in the learning/teaching process. 2. Encourage participants to make reasonable decisions and actions on real life sustainability issues. 3.

Support participants to examine their assumptions, knowledge, and experiences, in order to develop critical thinking and to be open to change. 5. Encourage participants to be aware of cultural practices as an integral part of sustainability issues. 6. Encourage participants to share inspirational stories of their achievements, failures, and values, to learn from them and to support each other. 7. Continuously explore, test and share innovative approaches, methodologies, and techniques. 8. Ensuring continuous improvements through monitoring and evaluating are central focus of our programmes.
