The Centre has received funding from donors that include the following:
- Table Mountain Fund
- Ford Foundation
- Global Greengrants Fund
- Open Society Foundation for South Africa
- International Association of Impact Assessment (South Africa)
- Konrad Adenauer Foundation
- National Lottery Distribution Trust Fund
The idea of the Centre was alive for at least 10 years before its establishment in 2009, and during that time many individuals and organisations have lent their support, including both financial contributions and in-kind donations of time and expertise. It would be difficult for us to list all those who have supported our work with their time, expertise or financial donations. However, below is a list of some of the organisations and individuals that have supported our efforts:
- Wildlife and Environment Society of South Africa, particularly former WESSA Senior Conservationist Andy Gubb
- The Canadian Institute for Law and Policy, for their support in the conceptual phase of establishing the Centre
- Leo Townsend, for web design
- Corinne and Robin Lancaster from Visualine, for design of our beautiful logo
- Attorneys DLA Cliffe Dekker Hofmeyr, specifically attorneys Seraj Haroun and Tessmerica Moodley
- Stark Ayres Garden Centre, Mowbray, for indoor and outdoor plants for our office
