Earth Island Institute (EII) was founded in 1982 to foster the work of creative individuals by providing organizational support in developing projects for the conservation, preservation, and restoration of the global environment.

In the former Soviet Union, their main partners are the Baikal Environmental Wave and Baikal Center (both in Irkutsk), the Baikal Fund (Chita), EcoJuris Institute (Moscow), ISAR (with offices in Washington, DC, Moscow, Vladivostok, Novosibirsk), Novib (both in the Netherlands and in Tashkent), and many others.

Through their Baikal Watch program the EEI sponsors summer ecotours of Lake Baikal and the Russian Far East.
