Conservation
in Action

Portugal's biodiversity is under increasing pressure, from habitat loss to climate change.

Across the country, exceptional organisations are working to protect ecosystems and species. Many of them lack the consistent funding, governance support and technical help they need to scale their impact.

Viridia exists to change that.

We identify and support high-impact conservation initiatives, funding directly and connecting them with Patrons who want to make a meaningful difference.

“There is simply no issue more important. Conservation is the preservation of human life on earth, and that, above all else, is worth fighting for.”
