We are a mutlidisciplinary group of stakeholders working collectively to develop the knowledge and capacity required to implement conservation markets in Alberta. Through the network, coordinated efforts will create a system for information sharing and collaboration across sector boundaries. By working together, we have the potential to build capacity and drive greater innovation in science, data and information management, socio-economics and policy to support the creation of a working conservation market system, bringing Alberta to the forefront of economic diversification, environmental excellence and sustainable development.
