Linked below is the first issue of Long Range Biodiversity, a newsletter that reports on activity under the multi-year project, Recovery of Species at Risk in Western Newfoundland.
This initiative is funded by Environment and Climate Change Canada under the Community Nominated Priority Places program, with additional support from the NL Department of Fisheries and Land Resources and many organizations, businesses, and individuals. Core partners are Qalipu First Nation, Memorial University of Newfoundland, Nature Conservancy of Canada, and lead organization Intervale. Many organizations, businesses, and individuals play key roles in project implementation and we are extremely grateful to them all. In this issue, you will learn about the dedicated efforts by staff and volunteers from many organizations, community groups, and local businesses from Port aux Basques to Cape Norman and across the Strait of Belle Isle to Point Amour, Labrador. They are working to protect the amazing biodiversity of this region in a manner that will benefit communities long-term. We invite everyone to get involved!
For more information about the project and how you can get involved, please contact any of the partners listed on the back page of the newsletter or send us an email at info@intervale.ca.
