Support us
Supporting the Venice Agreement means helping peatlands – and the relationships that sustain them – continue to exist.
The Venice Agreement is not a project we “run”.
It is something we hold together.
Across peatlands, across languages, across ways of knowing, a growing grass-roots community is gathering to care for places that are often overlooked, undervalued, or misunderstood. This work is slow, relational, and collective. It depends on trust, time, and the possibility of coming together.
To support the Venice Agreement is to support more than a gathering.
It is to sustain a space where:
Knowledge moves across disciplines and territories.
Local custodians shape global conversations.
Care is practised, not prescribed.
What your support enables
Your support helps keep this ecosystem of collaboration alive.
It allows connections to happen that otherwise wouldn’t: between people, between territories, between different ways of understanding what it means to care for peatlands.
It makes space for:
Encounters that are being built across continents from the ground up, without large funding structures
Forms of knowledge that are not always recognised by institutions
Processes that unfold over time rather than deliver quick outcomes
This is not only about making an event possible.
It is about sustaining a way of working together that resists extraction and centres reciprocity.
Ways of Supporting
There are many ways to be part of this.
You can support financially, help amplify the work, or connect us with others who are aligned with this vision. Every gesture matters.

If you are interested in a deeper collaboration, partnerships, or institutional support, we would be glad to be in conversation.
A Living Community
The Venice Agreement continues to grow through the people who enter into relation with it.
Support is not only a transaction.
It is a way of participating in a shared commitment to peatlands and the communities who care for them.
Each contribution - material, relational, or otherwise - becomes part of this evolving network.
