The Sports for Nature Framework was created to tap into sports’ enormous potential to take on ambitious goals and drive positive change. The Framework aims to deliver transformative, nature positive action across sports by 2030 and beyond, enabling sports to champion nature and contribute to its protection and restoration.
The Framework supports sports to make contributions to nature and asks sports organisations to work towards four principles and linked goals that will help them advance their nature journey.
Our organisation is committed to protecting and avoiding damage to natural habitats and species, including respecting protected areas.
Our organisation takes positive action to restore and regenerate nature in and around the indoor and outdoor environments where we operate.
Our organisation will reduce risks to nature and enable opportunities to conserve and restore nature in our supply chains, linking wherever possible to climate goals.
Our organisation will educate and inspire greater awareness and action for nature within our sport and our wider communities and stakeholders.
With the support and enabling assistance of Sports for Nature partners, signatories can effectively deliver on these commitments, driving positive change and leading by example in the sports community.
Any sport organisation – club, league, regional association, governing body, Olympic Committee, events’ organiser, local organising committee, or venue – of any size, level, sport, capacities or geography, which is ready to make measurable contributions for nature under the Framework’s four principles, is welcome to apply to become Sports for Nature Framework signatory.
Although individuals cannot become signatories, they are encouraged to work with signatories and potential signatories to help champion Sports for Nature.
