The Michael Otto Foundation for Environmental Protection was established in 1993 by Dr Michael Otto in order to protect and conserve the vital natural resource of water. Today, the Foundation is strategically engaged in supporting future-orientated nature conservation and sustainable development.

To achieve this it has three fields of action: the Foundation supports nature-conservation projects with a focus on water habitats; it is engaged in the education sector, and through holding as series of dialogues it helps develop strategic solutions for current environmental-policy issues.

The Foundation's stated objective is to set a clear example and to motivate further exemplary initiatives, with the goal of preserving the environment for future generations.
