The interconnection of people and nature is the Nature Conservancy of Canada's (NCC's) foundation; the idea that we are all one with nature. Together, through purposeful actions, we have the opportunity to build toward a greater good — a thriving world. Because when nature thrives, people thrive.
RedBerry Lake Biosphere Reserve

In the Redberry Lake Biosphere Region we share common values of equality, miyo-mahcihoyān (physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well-being), and appreciation of local nature, culture and heritage. Interconnectedness is what sustains our unique landscape, people and economy, inspiring future generations to live harmoniously in an ecosystem that thrives in sustainable environmental practices and community.

Stage 3: Outreach, Service and Community Impact Development
In this stage, CCC participants will be able to take what they’ve learned in the first two stages and incorporate that knowledge into meaningful community outreach and impactful service projects. From developing pollinator education programs for the classroom to hosting informative podcasts that expose new audiences to discussions on the top environmental issues of the day, these projects are developed and delivered by CCC participants with the goal of having a positive impact on both their home communities and Canada. Explore every completed CCC project here to see the impact our program is having across Canada and to get inspiration for how you can better your community and local wildlife.
