Connected by conservation, strengthened by partnership

Since 2002, Kootenay Conservation Program (KCP) has positively influenced land conservation and stewardship across the Kootenays in southeastern BC.

Our collective efforts have impact: land conservation in the Kootenays is stronger, smarter, more effective and lasting because our partners have committed to working together.

Every month, we share stories about people who have contributed to conservation in the Kootenays. Get to know who they are, and the unique things they’ve done.

Since the beginning, we have worked collaboratively to positively influence private land stewardship and conservation in the region. Our story started in the Kootenays, and now informs networks across the country.

We are a broad partnership of land and water conservation and stewardship groups, First Nations, other government agencies, and agricultural producers working throughout the East and West Kootenays.
