Polar Bears International (PBI) is a non-profit polar bear conservation organization. Their research, education, and action programs address the issues that are endangering polar bears.[2] The organization also studies polar bears and monitors their activity data which helped lead to the animals being listed as a threatened species.[3] While Churchill, Canada, serves as an important hub for PBI scientists and educators, the organization's work on behalf of polar bears spans the Arctic including Svalbard, Russia, and Alaska.

PBI's Chief Scientist is Steven Amstrup,[4] winner of the 2012 Indianapolis Prize.[5]
