We need a strategic and collaborative approach for effective conservation efforts in Coastal Douglas-fir ecosystems. We need a strategic and collaborative approach for effective conservation efforts in Coastal Douglas-fir ecosystems.

The Coastal Douglas Fir Conservation Partnership (CDFCP) brings a strategy of shared stewardship and has identified conservation priorities that reduce duplication of effort, share resources and information, and provide support to its participants. In 2015 the focus of the forum will be Conservation in Coastal Douglas-fir Zone. A partnership of conservation organizations, governments, and other stakeholders have developed a conservation plan, and perhaps more importantly, a tool to help others set and recognize their own conservation priorities.

Participants will both learn and share. There will be sessions on conservation planning and the new Marxan tool now available to everyone. There will also be opportunities for you to share what actions and places are important to you or your organization. The Forum is a great opportunity to connect with others passionate about conservation, and find partners for your work.
