Biodiversity is a hot topic in New Brunswick these days! With the federal government’s commitment to protect 17% of Canada’s land area by 2020, and increasing that target to 30% by 2030, with the provincial government’s intention to double its protected and conserved land and freshwater from 4.6% to 10%, with Indigenous groups looking at Indigenous Protected and Conserved Areas (IPCAs), and conservation groups working to protect spaces and species locally and regionally, there is a lot going on! What are the big projects going on in my area? What are the opportunities for my organization to get involved? How does all this conservation work fit into provincial and federal strategies and priorities? Join us on February 11 to learn more.
