In 2018, Carolinian Canada and partners developed the Big Picture Protected Areas Strategy to guide collaborative action toward an enhanced protected areas system. Join us to advance action by:

  • Exploring implementation opportunities and municipal connections to expand and enhance protected areas
  • Gather knowledge to inform the evaluation of protected areas criteria and definitions on the Carolinian landscape
  • Identify data partners to inform evidence-based decision making

Join us to Save Our Unique Nature on Friday, November 15, 2019.

Workshop Outline:

The workshop will offer the opportunity to design and facilitate a joint learning and planning experience that:

  • Connects local leaders on this issue including strategic community, regional and municipal systems.
  • Increases local knowledge regarding current related activities.
  • Informs and inspires future action via sharing additional best practices from other communities.
  • Connects neighbouring opportunities and increases understanding of both similarities and differences in strengths and challenges.
  • Accelerates progress toward a sustainable future in southern Ontario.

Who should attend:

Carolinian Canada partners, municipal staff and decision-making representatives from ENGO, Indigenous, agricultural and landowner associations connected to protected area strategic and operational activities.
