Bloomberg Philanthropies’ “Follow the Data” podcast highlights how our work is driving change and making an impact in the areas of education, the arts, the environment, public health and government innovation.
Here’s how the podcast works: our founder is a strong believer that “if you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it,” and data-driven strategies are at the core of our work. Each episode will begin with a key data point that gives insight into a problem we’re addressing through our unique approach. From there, our guests – some of whom you will recognize as our program leads and partners – will share their expertise and stories on how our work together impacts the data.

147. Protecting 30% of the World's Land and Ocean by 2030
Currently, only 17% of the world’s land and 8% of its ocean are protected. Without government action and commitment to protect the natural world, our most vital natural systems are at risk of collapsing.
As a Bloomberg Ocean Initiative partner and the winner of the 2024 Earthshot Prize in the ‘Revive Our Oceans’ category, the High Ambition Coalition for Nature and People - also referred to as HAC - is turning words into action, engaging with governments around the world to officially protect 30% of our land and ocean by 2030.
An intergovernmental group of 120 countries co-chaired by Costa Rica and France, HAC is the largest coalition of countries for nature. Since its inception, the HAC has been working alongside policymakers to provide the guidance and resources necessary to track their progress and follow through on their commitments to global conservation efforts.
On this episode of Follow the Data, Katherine Oliver sits down with Rita El-Zaghloul, Director of the High Ambition Coalition for Nature and People, to discuss the urgency of biodiversity protection, how winning The Earthshot Prize has helped the group expand its efforts, examples of progress that has been made so far, and her vision for the coalition's future.
