The Future Flora of the Netherlands, Hortus Amsterdam, 2025-2028
The Hortus Botanicus Amsterdam, one of the world's oldest botanical gardens, is developing a new thematic garden: The Future Flora of the Netherlands, focused on the impact of climate change on nature in the Netherlands. Visitors are introduced to indigenous plants that are resistant to drought and heat as well as to species that will become established in the Netherlands thanks to higher temperatures. Together with soil life and insects, this forms a living ecosystem that encourages reflection and sparks inspiration.
The garden is being organised in an accessible and interactive way, with information panels, audio, visible layers of soil and insect hotels. Visitors are given practical ideas for their own garden or balcony and learn how they can help safeguard biodiversity. Its construction is taking place in close collaboration with partners such as Artis Zoo, the municipality of Amsterdam and academic institutions. The renovated, sustainable Climate Greenhouse will reinforce the coherence between global and local plant themes.
The Turing Foundation is contributing €45,000 towards this project (of which €10,000 in 2025).

Accelerated transition Dutch aviation sector, Netherlands, 2025
Natuur & Milieu is one of the biggest and most influential environmental organisations in the Netherlands. It has various programmes with which it works on issues related to climate change.
The aviation sector contributes 15% of the climate impact of the Dutch economy, but the sector's lobbying efforts, economic arguments against regulation and belief in future technological solutions are hindering effective climate policy. Natuur & Milieu has been campaigning for years for the reduction of the climate impact of aviation and works with policy makers, politicians and climate scientists to stimulate effective and ambitious policy.
The goal of this project is to bring Dutch international aviation in line with the Paris climate goals (55% reduction in emissions in 2030 and 100% in 2050). By 2025, Natuur & Milieu wants the introduction of a cap on aviation CO2 emissions so that the level of CO2 emissions by aviation is 25% below the level in 2019, that at least 2% of aviation fuels is sustainable, and that people in the Netherlands fly less often and shorter distances than in 2019.
To reach these goals the organisation is focusing on three main elements: influencing policy development, stimulating companies to reduce business travel and supporting the aviation sector's transition.
The Turing Foundation is contributing € 300,000 towards this project (of which, € 100,000 in 2025)

Making the True Price Standard available worldwide, 2025-2028
The True Price Foundation is dedicated to calculating the true cost of products - a price which not only includes
conventional production costs but also hidden social and environmental costs. By providing insight into these external costs
and translating them into financial terms, True Price wants to contribute to more sustainable production chains and fairer
remuneration for all parties involved. The organisation is engaging with actors across the entire supply chain - from farmers
to supermarkets - as well as governments, financial institutions, civil society organisations and consumers.
The objective is not to make products more expensive, but rather to help producers and consumers reduce external costs.
This enables more conscious decision-making, more sustainable policies and fairer trade practices. To achieve this, the foundation is
developing a standard with which farmers, producers and other actors can calculate the true cost of their products.
This standard will also help governments formulate sustainable policy. True Price is of course working hard to encourage
both businesses and governments to adopt the standard, via a global network of 130 partners, with an initial focus on the
food sector and later also on textiles and transport. It is also actively engaging consumers through events, influencers
and the introduction of "true price shops" such as De Aanzet. This encourages them to make more informed choices or to
support policy change.
The Turing Foundation is contributing €150,000 towards the core funding of the True Price Foundation (of which €50,000 in 2025).

Together for a Healthy and Sustainable Food System, Social Cost-Benefit Analysis, 2025-2026
The Robin Food Coalition and the Food Transition Coalition are committed to creating a fairer and more sustainable food system. The current agricultural and food system in the Netherlands is ecologically, economically and socially unsustainable. Growing evidence shows that a transition to a sustainable model is not only better for people and the environment but may also be economically advantageous. But as there is still no comprehensive social cost-benefit analysis it is difficult to make well-founded decisions. This has prompted the coalitions to commission such an analysis. The analysis will assess both the current system and sustainable alternatives within planetary boundaries, considering health, animal welfare and social justice.
An analysis of this kind alone is not enough. The coalitions are developing a strategic communication and lobbying plan to ensure the wide dissemination of the results. These will be presented at a major event and shared with policymakers through a targeted lobbying campaign. Alongside the findings, a concise policy document will be produced with a concrete ten-point action plan. The coalitions aim to use this effort to persuade decision-makers and to accelerate government action towards a future-proof food system.
The Turing Foundation is contributing €50,000 towards the analysis.

Industry agreement on the protein transition, the Netherlands, 2024-2025
Questionmark is an independent thinktank. Their mission is to ensure our food environment supports a healthy,
sustainable, fair and animal-friendly food system. The aim of this project is to reduce the consumption of animal protein
by making industry agreements with Dutch supermarkets. The range of products offered by supermarkets could support people
to eat less animal products and thereby support the protein transition in the Netherlands. First of all, this project provides
insights into how supermarkets are currently contributing to the protein transition.
Subsequently, the project supports supermarkets to reduce the sale of animal-based proteins
by trying to make joint industry agreements on this topic.
The Turing Foundation is contributing €50.000 towards this project.

'Together for a healthy and sustainable food system', Netherlands, 2024-2025
Our daily food choices greatly influence the climate, biodiversity, our health, animal welfare and global food security. For this reason, ProVeg Netherlands campaigns for more plant-based production and consumption patterns.
The number of flexitarians has greatly increased in the last ten years, and people in the Netherlands eat more meat substitutes than anywhere in Europe. This project is focused on accelerating the protein transition in the Netherlands and reducing the consumption of meat and animal proteins. ProVeg wants to help the public permanently change in its diet. ProVeg wants to research the effects of its 'Veggie Challenge' and develop it further as an instrument for behaviour change for the most varied-possible target group. The organisation also wants to increase and professionalise its influence on Dutch politics.
The Turing Foundation is contributing € 160,000 towards this project (of which, € 80,000 in 2024)

Professionalisation of the Jonge Klimaatbeweging, 2024-2025
The Jonge Klimaatbeweging (Young Climate Movement campaigns for a world in which young people have a say in their future and caring well for the planet is only natural. It is fighting for a future-proof society centred on justice and empathy. The Movement is based on a clear idea: young people deserve a voice to shape their own sustainable future. They are the generation which will have to live with the consequences of climate change. The decisions taken today will determine how tomorrow's world will be. In our society, tomorrow's world is in the hands of today's politicians, policy makers and business leaders. For this reason it is vital for young people's voices to be heard.
The Turing Foundation's support will help the organisation professionalise. Volunteers' travel costs will now be reimbursed, the board will receive a higher remuneration and an office will be rented. In addition, the Turing Foundation's support will contribute towards circulating the vision document entitled 'de Jonge Klimaatagenda 3.0' (the Young Climate Agenda 3.0) amongst policy makers and a large group of young people.
The Turing Foundation is contributing € 150,000 towards this project (of which, € 40,000 in 2024).

Posters for the planet - a competition for a better world, The Netherlands, 2024-2025
Research shows that nearly 80 percent of Dutch people are concerned about rising temperatures and declining biodiversity,
but find it challenging to turn that concern into action.
Posters for the Planet - a competition for a better world
aims to bridge the gap between good intentions and actual change.
The Turing Foundation calls on designers, artists, and other creative Dutch people to submit a unique poster image that exudes great urgency and has a clear call to action. In this competition, each creator is free to choose their own focus: what can be different, which themes are crucial, what makes people able and willing to contribute more?
The winning designs will receive a generous cash prize, be exhibited in various Dutch museums and public spaces,
and will form the basis for a national climate campaign that the Turing Foundation is developing together with a number of partners.
Want to know more, submit a poster, collaborate with us? Go to postersfortheplanet.org.
The Turing Foundation has made €500,000 available for this project.

Vote for a climate candidate, Young Climate Movement election campaign, 2023
Do you already know who you are going to vote for?
That's fine, but then choose to vote for a climate candidate instead of the party leader!
The Young Climate Movement has selected per political party the candidate who is most outspoken to tackle climate issues.
If a political party receives for example more preferential votes for a climate candidate listed as number 10 than for candidate
number 9, this gives a clear signal that its own supporters consider climate an important issue.
The Turing Foundation is contributing €75,000 to the online campaign to draw attention to this list of climate candidates.

Green Desert Initiative phase II, Mali, 2025
This is the Turing Foundation's second donation towards the Green Desert Initiative of Partners Pays-Dogon. The first projects supported by Turing were focused on countering environmental degradation: planting trees, planting Euphorbia on dunes to stabilise them, preventing erosion using dams made of sandbags, making agreements with farmers to protect areas from tree felling, trees on farmers' fields, tree nurseries, wood-saving ovens, teaching people how to harvest wood without killing trees - everything to kickstart regeneration.
Restoration is still the core of the Green Desert Initiative; it has been expanded over the years with projects focused on food supply - in this region that is dependent on natural conditions. Market and school gardens, coupled with education, are used to disseminate ecological techniques amongst the people; nurseries not only help restoration but increase economic activity.
The Turing Foundation is contributing €150,000 for three years. Turing's contribution has enabled various subprojects to be implemented,
creates continuity for the local organisation and expands the impact of past achievements.

Conserving the forest ecosystem of Wologizi-Wonegizi, Liberia, 2024-2025
Two rainforests, Wologizi and Wonegizi in northern Liberia, are seriously threatened by poaching, mining and rapidly increasing agricultural activity. As local communities have few alternatives, there is increasing interest in commercial activities that will damage the rainforest further. Fauna and Flora International, the only nature conservation organisation working in the area, wants it to be given formal protected status. It also wants to support local communities in demanding their rights and improve policing capacity to ensure that the forests are not exploited illegally. The two rainforests are essential for conserving biodiversity and retaining CO2. Wologizi currently retains 100,000 tonnes of CO2 and Wonegizi 35,000 tonnes. Preventing deforestation will avert the release of this CO2.
The Turing Foundation is contributing €150,000 (of which €70,000 in 2024).
Turing's support will contribute towards the protection of threatened species and reducing poaching.
In the long term it will contribute towards recognised rights for the local communities by adapting national legislation.

Building an independent and sustainable community forests database, DR Congo, 2024
The British arm of the Rainforest Foundation, Rainforest UK, campaigns for the preservation of the rainforests
in the Congo Basin and has been working on the development of community forestry since 2010: an effective way of preserving
rainforests by granting local communities land rights (concessions). This is of growing importance and potential.
In the Congo Basin, more than 75 million hectares of rainforest is eligible for this kind of forestry.
With assistance from the Turing Foundation, Rainforest UK
developed a database to record all concessions transparently in 2019.
The ultimate goal is for this database to run independently, which requires software development and training,
as well as guidance in fundraising and lobbying government. The capacity of the database has been increased greatly now,
and it is much more user-friendly. Training sessions have been held (in Equateur province, North Kivu and Kinshasa)
for organisations at national and provincial level. Materials have been bought for the governmental organisation
responsible for Community Forestry (DFC). The DFC has minimal resources and more of Rainforest UK's involvement
and time is needed before structural financing can be arranged. This financing is expected in 2024.
For this reason, the Turing Foundation supported them in 2021 and in a follow-up project in 2022,
and now we are supporting the final bridging phase.
The Turing Foundation is contributing € 120,000 towards this project.

Corsola, automated coral cultivation for reef restoration, the Caribbean, 2025-2026
BRANCH Foundation develops innovative, science-based solutions for restoring coral ecosystems. The foundation set up Project Corsola to focus on large-scale coral cultivation to restore biodiversity and make the restoration process affordable. After a successful pilot project in the Netherlands, the organisation plans to expand its activities in the Caribbean.
Work is underway to establish large-scale nurseries, lowering the cost per coral and further optimising the cultivation process. This approach is industrial in scale but ecologically well considered. The project is strongly data-driven. Data on growth rates, environmental factors, costs and efficiency are used to select coral species that are more resilient to climate stress and to continuously improve the restoration process.
The Turing Foundation is contributing €11,000 towards this project.

Scaling up community-led conservation of marine ecosystems, Madagascar, 2025-2026
Blue Ventures is an organisation that campaigns for the preservation and protection of the sea, and puts people first. It supports coastal communities in remote and rural communities to rebuild fisheries, restore ocean life and develop sustainable ways of generating income for the local community.
This project focuses on protecting 557 km2 of marine area in the Bay of Tsimipaika, in the north-west of Madagascar, based on community-led marine conservation. This is being reached by supporting the Miaramientagna Federation's coordination of bay management. Fishing restrictions are being implemented, and sea grass reserves and no-take zones are being established to improve biodiversity and increase fishing yields. In addition, 21 members of the community are being trained to monitor the marine ecosystems and use their data to show the local community the advantages of complying with the sustainability measures. Various aspects of local communities' decision-making are being improved and local support is being fostered for new and larger marine reserves.
The Turing Foundation is contributing € 193,000 towards this project (of which, € 50,000 in 2025)

The Blue North: regeneration of the northern coastline of Mallorca, 2025-2027
As the Mediterranean Sea is in a poor ecological state, Commonland is supporting the Mallorca Land and Sea Alliance - a collaboration of several NGOs focused on regenerating seagrass meadows, developing Marine Protected Areas and increasing local awareness and engagement in nature restoration.
In its first year of support from the Turing Foundation, the project yielded promising results. For the next two years, there will be five priorities: (1) restoring marine ecosystems, including monitoring efforts in Cala Murta; (2) policy development and support for protected areas; (3) community engagement through forums, campaigns and education; (4) promoting sustainable agriculture and water management, including support for farms and expansion of a citizen science app; and (5) strengthening the alliance's organisational capacity and securing diverse funding sources.
The alliance recognises the challenge tourism poses to nature conservation. Consequently, it is taking steps to alleviate the impact of tourism. Initiatives include natural wastewater treatment in collaboration with hotels and municipalities, proposals for new marine protected zones and promoting responsible tourism such as eco-certified diving and sailing. It is also creating partnerships with tourism-related businesses to enable structural contributions to ecosystem restoration through new financing models.
The Turing Foundation is contributing €100,000 towards this project (of which €50,000 in 2025).

Long-term, adaptive management systems to promote resilient reefs and communities, Honduras, 2025-2027
The coral reefs of the Bay Islands in Honduras are vital to biodiversity, economic development and cultural heritage. They support thousands of people through fisheries and tourism but face severe threats from overfishing and pollution. The Coral Reef Alliance (CORAL) collaborates with local coastal communities to protect these reefs, aiming to establish a resilient network of healthy and diverse reefscapes that can adapt to climate change.
This project aims to strengthen official marine protections through improved policy, sustainable financing and effective enforcement of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). For instance, 70% of the marine area around Roatán will be patrolled, and a new no-take zone is being established. Protection of Cordelia Banks, a key area for fish populations, is also being enhanced. Active involvement of local communities is increasing trust between fishers and enforcers, with the goal of ensuring long-term reef conservation.
In addition, the project is addressing wastewater treatment in Coxen Hole, where untreated sewage is currently discharged directly into the sea. This is expected to result in measurable water quality improvements. If successful, it will be expanded to five other communities. With this integrated approach to marine conservation and wastewater management, the project supports coral reef preservation, fish population recovery and improved living conditions for local communities.
The Turing Foundation is contributing €245,000 towards this project (of which €75,000 in 2025).

Protection of the Wadden Sea, Advocaat van de Aarde, 2025-2026
Advocaat van de Aarde (Lawyer of the Earth) aims to support citizen initiatives that seek to compel better nature conservation through legal means. This project concerns the Wadden Sea, the only Dutch nature reserve with UNESCO World Heritage status. The Wadden Sea is severely threatened by pollution and plans for gas drilling. Various sources, including industrial discharges, agricultural activities and shipping, contribute to pollution because of inadequate enforcement of existing laws and regulations aimed at protecting the area or because existing laws and regulations are insufficient.
For this reason, Advocaat van de Aarde and Stichting Mobilisation (MOB, Mobilisation Foundation)
are joining forces to take legal action to protect the Wadden Sea, with the support of the Waddenvereniging
(Wadden Sea Association) and PAN NL. Advocaat van de Aarde is giving MOB financial support and expertise.
Collaboration with other organisations is being considered to strengthen the approach.
The Turing Foundation is contributing € 100,000 towards this project (of which € 50,000 in 2025).

Zeegrasherstel in de Oosterschelde, Oosterschelde, 2025-2026
The Sea Ranger Service> wants to enable marine biodiversity recovery on a greater scale by developing maritime
innovations and training young people as Sea Rangers to carry out operational nature restoration activities.
In collaboration with the University of Groningen, which has been a prominent competence centre in research
into and implementation of seagrass restoration for several years, this new project has been initiated to involve
Sea Rangers in implementing sea grass restoration at a greater scale. The aim is to restore seagrass in the Eastern
Scheldt and thus develop a method which can be replicated in large-scale restoration projects outside Europe.
Actively restoring seagrass will contribute towards the reintroduction of the plant in the Eastern Scheldt.
Seagrass can help improve greatly local biodiversity. Restoration can be achieved quickly, as seagrass restoration
research in the Wadden Sea has demonstrated. Researchers documented a positive biodiversity impact within two years,
with 30% more bottom-dwelling creatures in the seagrass than outside the test field. Most were herbivores such as snails,
periwinkles, amphipods, sea isopods and mussels. These species are the base of a rich food web and are eaten by many fish
and birds. Moreover, restored seagrass meadows can also reduce coastal erosion by stabilising sand with their network of
roots and rhizomes, as well as acting as carbon sinks by absorbing CO2 from the water and storing it in the seabed.
In short, seagrass meadows play an important ecological role, and in north-west European seas they have a comparable
diversity of marine life as tropical coral reefs. This ecosystem engineer is a key component of a rich ecosystem.
Not only on a local level but impacting mobile species such as fish and birds too.
The lessons learnt from seagrass restoration projects will contribute towards new internationally recognised standards
for seagrass restoration by the Consortium for European Seagrass Analysis and Restoration (CESAR).
The Turing Foundation is contributing € 150,000 towards this project (of which, € 50,000 in 2025).

Boosting the habitat of hammerhead sharks, Golfo Dulce, Costa Rica, 2025
Misión Tiburón is an NGO set up by two marine biologists. During their work they discovered that the hammerhead shark is one of the planet's most endangered species. They also realised that in the last decade insufficient attention has been paid to the species' nursery grounds and that protecting mangroves is essential to this shark's reproduction. A particularly important nursery ground is Golfo Dulce, on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica and one of only five tropical fjords in the world. Whilst Misión Tiburón's task was originally research, it now mostly focuses on protecting and restoring mangroves, involving local communities in this protection, and collaborating with the Costa Rican government to achieve goals in the climate agreement. In recent years, the mangroves in the region have been threatened by urban growth, sea-level rise, erosion and sedimentation. For this reason, the Misión Tiburón team decided to integrate an ecosystem approach in its work. The team now consists of eight members, with the founders still actively involved in the organisation's work. It collaborates closely with the local and national government in Costa Rica and with international organisations such as UNEP and IUCN.
This project will support the Costa Rican government in meeting its international obligations to protect and maintain 100% of its coastal areas, ensure management and effective monitoring of the wetlands and develop mechanisms to sustainably use mangroves for locals' livelihoods. The organisation started restoring mangrove areas in the last year and now needs additional financing to increase the scale of its restoration work. Misión Tiburón will continue to involve local communities and promote alternatives for their livelihoods.
The aim of the project is to strengthen the hammerhead shark reserve in Golfo Dulce in Costa Rica by protecting and restoring mangrove areas and reducing local communities' ecological and social-economic vulnerabilities.
The Turing Foundation is contributing € 200,000 towards this project (of which, € 40,000 in 2025).

Investigation into the Illegal Shark Fin Trade, 2024-2026
The Wildlife Justice Commission's mission is to disrupt and help dismantle the transnational criminal networks that trade in wildlife, timber and fish. They do this by gathering evidence and to use the collected materials to enforce governments to take more responsibility.
This project specifically targets the shark fin trade, which is responsible for the death of an estimated 100 million sharks per year (approximately 10% of the global population). The unregulated shark fin trade is the biggest threat to sharks. The aim of this project is to disrupt global illegal networks and to prevent the export of shark fins. Another outcome will be that global intelligence services will obtain an increased understanding about shark fin trade, and thereby contribute to the protection of these vulnerable species.
The Turing Foundation is contributing €150.000 towards this project (of which €75.000 in 2024).

Protection of the Dogger Bank, the Netherlands, 2024-2026
Blue Marine Foundation is established in 2010 with the objective to protect and restore marine life. The organization was founded by the team that created the award-winning book and documentary "The End of the Line', a story that showed the damage that is caused due to overfishing marine environments.
The Doggerland-project is a continuation of the important court case that was won in June 2022. This case enforced the protection of the British part of the Dogger Bank. Building upon this case, Blue Marine wants to put more legal pressure on both the EU Commission, the Netherlands and Germany to enforce the adoption of more ambitious protection decisions that will protect the European part of the Dogger Bank.
The Turing Foundation is contributing €200.000 towards this project (of which, €80.000 in 2024).

Sustainable mangrove conservation, Liberia, 2023-2024
Conservation International is one of the world's largest international nature conservation organisations
and has been working for over 30 years towards a healthy and prosperous world in which society values and protects nature.
The Turing Foundation has previously supported one of its mangrove projects in the Philippines. The organisation has 27 country offices,
including Conservation International Liberia since 2002. This country office aims to improve management of five protected mangrove nature reserves and increase their number
to fourteen protected nature conservation areas in Liberia, including the Marshall coastal area. They want to enable 34 communities
to protect this area through conservation agreements in exchange for support in a jointly chosen area. This project is making this
process possible and enabling them to conduct two surveys that are required for the government to consider giving the area a protected status.
An ecotourism plan is being developed to generate income needed to properly manage the area.
The Turing Foundation is contributing € 300,000 towards this project.
