What We Do

In 2010 NAWCC (Canada) developed a Strategic Plan for the 2010-20 period. Council envisions a Canada that has abundant and resilient wetlands, waterfowl and other wetland dependent species that are sustained and valued Council works to achieve this vision through five Strategies:

A. Oversee the administration and guide the implementation of the NAWMP in Canada and provide advice on the Plan (to the Plan Committee).

B. Influence policies, regulations and legislation to conserve and restore Canada's wetlands.

C. Influence science and technology priorities in order to support wetlands and other wetland dependent species conservation in Canada.

D. Provide information on wetlands, waterfowl, and other wetland dependent species to support informed decision-making.

E. Develop communications and outreach programs and materials for wetlands, waterfowl, and other wetland dependent species conservation as guided by the national communication plan.

Details on actions under these Strategies can be found by referring to the Strategic Plan.
