This award recognizes individual(s) that are proven leaders in the field of conservation.

Their work is primarily based in the Kootenays, although they may also be very active in other geographic regions. Although nominees are not required to be affiliated with a KCP partner, they must show a demonstrated commitment towards KCP’s vision of “landscapes in the Kootenays that sustain naturally functioning ecosystems that can in turn support economic and social well-being.”

Do you know of someone that should be celebrated this year?  If so, please send us their name and a brief summary of why they are a suitable candidate (250 words max.) to info@kootenayconservation.ca by September 15, 2014.
