The Turing Foundation seeks to promote and encourage a sustainable and respectful relationship with nature. Respect is in the interest of nature itself. Sustainability should ensure that the needs of present generations can be met, without reducing the possibilities of future generations to fulfil theirs.
In trying to achieve these aims, the Turing Foundation limits its scope to the following two areas:
Protection and sustainable management of the nurseries of the sea in developing countries, the areas in seas and along coasts that have the highest concentration of life and biodiversity. Coral reefs and Mangroves deserve special mention here;
Protection against climate change.
The Turing Foundation is as yet not planning to introduce an open application procedure for projects in the field of nature conservation. The management will itself directly invite organisations and initiatives to submit an application in the field of the working areas mentioned above.
