Our Committees
Our committees guide our partnership and are made up of partner organizations involved in land conservation and stewardship.
Securement Committee
Our Securement Committee is a confidential team of partners from land trusts active across the region, as well as other key organizations involved in landscape-level land acquisition for conservation. This includes representatives from the provincial government, First Nations, Canadian Wildlife Service, and Fish and Wildlife Compensation Program. The goal of the Securement Committee is to serve as a forum for the discussion, prioritization, and securement of high-value conservation properties in the Kootenays.
Stewardship Committees
Our Stewardship Committee meetings support partners to identify ways to collaborate on stewardship activities. We facilitate two Stewardship Committees—one in the East Kootenay and one in the West Kootenay—and host an annual gathering that often includes a field tour to showcase partners’ stewardship projects.
