Coalition Partners
Nature organizations across Canada are working together to support municipalities, land trusts, and conservation authorities to understand how their natural sites can contribute to a pan-Canadian movement to halt and reverse nature’s decline.
About
Nature Canada, the Alliance of Canadian Land Trusts, BC Nature, Ontario Nature, and Wildlands League will focus on supporting pilot municipalities across Canada that have demonstrated a readiness to recognize or increase their protected areas and OECMs. Land Trust Alliance of BC and le Réseau de Milieux Naturels protégés support our regional efforts. With the successful pilot municipalities, we hope to clearly identify how municipalities are leading in conservation, and support more municipalities in contributing their protected areas towards Canada’s 30x30 target.

We believe in the major opportunity for municipalities to showcase their conservation efforts on a national platform. This is where biodiversity can be protected, where conservation lands can be connected, and Canadians can gain an appreciation for their local natural wonders.
