About Us

The Golden Gate Biosphere Network (GGBN) is a member of the UNESCO Man and Biosphere Program – a network of biodiverse areas of global significance. The GGBN is one of over 700 program sites in more than 130 nations. We are a network of scientists, government leaders, storytellers, educators, nonprofit trailblazers, working lands luminaries, community ambassadors, and, most importantly, doers. We work together to combat climate change and biodiversity loss in order to find bold, innovative, and equitable solutions that strengthen the resiliency of our communities and our shared environment.
