The East Kootenay Conservation Program (EKCP) is a partnership of 47 conservation, industry and government organizations dedicated to conserving natural areas for Kootenay communities. The EKCP vision is to have landscapes in the Kootenays that sustain naturally functioning ecosystems that can in turn support economic and social well being.  We envision vibrant communities that demonstrate the principles of environmental stewardship for future generations.  Networking helps us to find win-win approaches to ecosystem conservation and stewardship on private and adjacent Crown lands.
