Private land conservation engagement

Stakeholders were able to provide input into private land conservation options to inform private land conservation tools for Alberta.

Overview

We sought input from Alberta stakeholders and the landowners they partner with through existing programs to help shape and improve private land conservation across the province. 

In Alberta, the conservation of private land supports natural landscapes and helps sustain healthy fish and wildlife populations, and conserves ecological services. This benefits the economy and human health, and enhances recreational opportunities for Albertans. Improvements to private land conservation tools in Alberta will help protect our natural landscapes while encouraging social and economic growth in our communities.

Get informed

We support local private land conservation efforts through the Land Trust Grant Program. Expanding land conservation tools will help us better support the goals of landowners for their families and the properties they manage.

Input received

Targeted stakeholders shared their perspectives on and experiences with private land conservation options through an online workshop and written submissions between November 26 and December 17, 2024.

We will continue to work closely with stakeholders from January – March 2025, as we develop new options and refine existing tools for private land conservation.

Outcomes

Feedback will inform the development of new land conservation options for implementation in 2025.
