Lindblad Expeditions and National Geographic share a commitment to advancing conservation, research, and exploration, and inspiring people to learn about, care for, and protect our world. In support of this commitment, the mission of the Lindblad Expeditions-National Geographic (LEX-NG) Fund is to support projects to understand and protect our world’s oceans, restore critical marine and coastal habitats, and foster environmental stewardship in the regions visited by the fleet, and beyond. The Fund supports inspirational, passionate project leaders who are committed to illuminating and protecting the wonder of our world.  National Geographic Society and Lindblad Expeditions are in search of innovative projects that strengthen community-based stewardship and conservation of coastal and riverine ecosystems.

These ecosystems support biodiversity and provide important services to the communities that rely on them, but are increasingly impacted by climate change, unsustainable fishing and agricultural practices, extreme weather, and various other stressors. The long term sustainability and health of these ecosystems requires the active participation and leadership of communities that live within them and near them in their stewardship. These communities are not only at the frontlines of protecting ecosystems, but also have important, in-depth, and localized traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) of past and present climate and ecosystem change, and consequently, the capacity to determine resilience solutions that meet current and future ecological and community needs.
