Nature-Based Solutions Foundation

The Nature-Based Solutions Foundation is on a mission to protect the most endangered ecosystems in Canada by filling critical conservation gaps that, if addressed, make it possible to establish new protected areas. Most notably, we collaborate with land-embedded communities while supporting their transitions to resilient, sustainable economies. To this end, we leverage and strategically direct private funds to unlock paths to establishing new protected areas. Our pillars- Protecting native ecosystems: We use science and the best available research to identify the most endangered ecosystems for protection- Fostering collaboration: We look for strategic opportunities to support regional conservation partners, communities, land trusts, and First Nations governments and other governments to establish new protected areas- Supporting communities: We provide land-embedded communities with funding to help them develop sustainable economic alternatives and build capacity for new protected areas.
