The Comox Valley Conservation Partnership

Project Watershed is proud to be an active member of the Comox Valley Conservation Partnership (CVCP). Check out the video to learn more about this local partnership!

Formerly known as the Comox Valley Conservation Strategy, the CVCP is an alliance of local environmental non-profit organizations, stewardship groups and local residents’ associations that have been working collaboratively since 2008 to address environmental concerns.   

CVCP members meet monthly to ensure efficient collaboration on strategic priorities around local conservation efforts and local development proposals.  

The CVCP was originally formed in response to the lack of a regional conservation plan for the Comox Valley. The CVCP took the leadership role in developing the “Nature Without Borders” strategy, first published in 2008 and revised in 2013. All local governments in the Comox Valley have endorsed the strategy, with several linking Official Community Plans and other policies directly to it. An update to Nature Without Borders is currently under development. It will be released later this year.
