GCC Strategic Plan 2009-2014

The Grasslands Conservation Council of British Columbia's Strategic Plan 2009-2014 sets out the future direction of our organization. As our Chair says, it "represents the work of staff and Board members to bring together new ideas to move the GCC forward towards its vision of 'working together for the conservation of BC's grasslands'."

This plan will guide the GCC over the next five years to achieve its mission of being a network of individuals and organizations working together to ensure healthy, life sustaining grassland ecosystems throughout BC by fostering greater understanding and appreciation for BC's grasslands, and recognizing their ecological, social, economic and cultural importance to current and future generations.

Highlights

Comparing the 2009-2014 strategic plan to that of 2003-2008, you will notice a few changes and additions:

• The two program areas Sustainable Ranching and Land use Planning and Community Stewardship have replaced the one program area of "Grassland Stewardship and Sustainable Ranching."
• The Grassland Ecology and Science Program is the renamed "Conservation of Grassland Ecosystems Program."
• This plan has been streamlined to focus on Goals, Objectives and Strategies.
