What We Do

The Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) is the country’s largest national land conservation organization. Since 1962, we have helped to protect more than 15 million hectares across the country.

Our conservation process has been fine-tuned over decades of on-the-ground work, and continues to evolve to meet our changing needs.

Ecosystem Restoration

Ecosystem restoration is making a difference for species at risk, the fight against biodiversity loss and safeguarding the benefits that nature provides people.

Grasslands Conservation

Our Prairie Grasslands Action Plan will lead efforts to conserve more than 500,000 hectares by 2030 — an area six times the city of Calgary. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Nature + Climate  Accelerator
