Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) are a relatively new conservation designation started by IUCN, with sites recognized worldwide. Canada’s KBA Secretariat, a non-governmental group led by Wildlife Conservation Society Canada, Birds Canada and NatureServe Canada, is identifying sites across the country. KBAs cover all ecosystems including terrestrial, freshwater and marine. Join Ian Adams, BC Coordinator for KBAs, to learn more about KBAs including what they are (and aren’t), opportunities for on the ground stewardship actions in KBAs, and other applications to conservation stewardship throughout the Kootenay – Columbia region.
