His Majesty's Government provides grants to a wide range of stakeholders, including those motivated by faith, to conserve and restore ecosystems internationally. For example, Defra has provided funding to faith-based organisations in Madagascar to enable rural Malagasy to raise their incomes, restore tree cover and conserve ecosystems through agroforestry.
