13th Conservation Connection Forum brings together organizations, governments, and people who play a role in creating a sustainable region.
Did you know there are over 100 different conservation organizations in the CRD alone? Habitat Acquisition Trust (HAT) has been bringing them together since 2001, and we are excited to announce the 13th Conservation Connection Forum on October 8th at the Mary Winspear Centre.
The Forum facilitates co-operation and communication among the many organizations, governments, and individuals working on environmental stewardship and conservation projects. This annual event enables us to learn from each other, forge new partnerships, strategize together, and celebrate our successes. A full day event, Conservation Connection features workshops, panel discussions, networking opportunities, and presentations.
This year the event will feature the work of the Coastal Douglas-fir & Associated Ecosystems Conservation Partnership. The CDFCP is a partnership of governments, non-profit organizations, and keen community members. Together they have created a Conservation Strategy for the south coast and islands that border the Strait of Georgia in the Salish Sea. Their focus is on the conservation and sustainability of the Douglas-fir habitats in a region known to ecologists as the Coastal Douglas-fir Biogeoclimatic Zone.
CDFCP is making their tools and data available to others who wish to create conservation plans for their own regions, whether it be a neighbourhood or regional district, and will providing training and information at the Forum. More information about the Coastal Douglas-fir & Associated Ecosystems Conservation Partnership is available at www.cdfcp.ca
A full agenda and registration for the Conservation Connection Forum is online and is available through www.hat.bc.ca, or by calling 250 995-2428.
