Reconciling Humans with Nature
Fund a Conservation Film
Where desert elephants search for water and families share their land with lions, conservation is lived every day. Help bring these Namibian stories to the screen.
CFF raises support for conservation films in Namibia only. We do not award grants or fund external projects in Namibia or other countries.
Why support film
The work exists. The world still needs to see it.
A lion beyond a reserve boundary. An elephant at a shared water source. The people finding a way to live alongside them. These are Namibia's conservation stories, told from the ground.
Your support helps CFF research, film and share them with communities, schools and audiences who may otherwise never see this work.

Film funding versus fieldwork funding
You support the storytelling. Namibia is our focus.
CFF raises support for conservation films in Namibia only. We do not award grants or fund external projects in Namibia or other countries.

Vehicle and logistics sponsorship
Remote films need reliable field access.
Production transport, tyres, fuel, servicing, recovery equipment, camping logistics and field safety are fundable needs. They should be recognised as production sponsorship, not direct partner conservation donations.
One country. Connected stories.
Wild places. Human lives. A shared future.

Can I support something other than a full film?
Yes. Discuss a contribution towards production, equipment, transport, fuel or post-production with CFF. The support levels above are starting points for an enquiry.
What should I ask before contributing?
