Grant Overview

Alberta's boreal forest is one of the largest remaining intact forest ecosystems in the world, but it faces significant threats from industrial development and climate change. The rural-urban divide in Alberta is pronounced, with many Indigenous communities located in remote areas with limited access to conservation resources. This funding supports nonprofit organizations working to protect Alberta's boreal forests through forest conservation efforts and Indigenous community engagement. To be successful, applicants must demonstrate their ability to work with local Indigenous communities to promote sustainable forestry practices and carbon sequestration. Alberta's unique cultural and ecological context requires a conservation approach that is sensitive to the needs and values of its Indigenous peoples. Unlike neighboring British Columbia, Alberta's forest conservation efforts must navigate the complexities of provincial forestry regulations. Key considerations for applicants include understanding the state's forest management framework and developing strategies to engage Indigenous communities in conservation efforts. Alberta's boreal forest is critical to the country's biodiversity and plays a key role in regulating the global climate. The region's numerous rivers and wetlands provide important habitat for a range of wildlife species, including woodland caribou and beaver. By supporting nonprofit organizations working in forest conservation, this funding can help Alberta protect its vital boreal forest ecosystem.
