SUMMARY:The Future of Conservation - Canada’s Leadership in Nature Conservation Shapes Our Path Forward
DESCRIPTION:Join Kinross Chair Julie Gelfand for an engaging and forward-looking discussion on the future of nature conservation in Canada\, guided by the expertise and experience of Catherine McKenna\, Canada’s former Minister of Environment and Climate Change and Minister of Infrastructure. This event will explore the current challenges and emerging opportunities within Canada’s conservation landscape. \nCatherine McKenna\nJoined by panelists Sabine Jessen from the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society and Lisa McLaughlin from Nature Conservancy of Canada\, the conversation will delve into the vital role that nature conservation plays in Canada\, reflecting on policy innovations and possibilities. \nAttendees will gain insights into how conservation efforts can support Canada’s broader climate goals\, reconciliation efforts\, and the transition to a sustainable future. The event will invite reflection on the essential qualities and characteristics of conservation leadership in Canada today\, examining the skills\, collaborations\, and vision required to drive meaningful change. \nRegister today – limited space available! \n\nThese events are possible thanks to those who foster learning for future conservation leaders. The Kinross Gold Corporation supports us in engaging experts like Julie Gelfand as the current Kinross Chair in Environmental Governance at U of G\, while the generosity of Dr. Martha Billes\, a respected business leader and philanthropist\, is supporting the Master of Conservation Leadership program. Both initiatives facilitate knowledge exchange\, connecting the teaching and research at U of G\, with practical initiatives\, engaging conservation leaders as mentors for students and establishing significant opportunities for future leaders in conservation.
