Conservation Action Planning Kathy Moser, Acting State Director The Nature Conservancy of New York

Over 200 partner organizations From more than 15 nations participated over 20 years to develop CAP

Discuss / Adapt ValidateReview Within Each Step: Adaptive Management

Laojunshan Project – Yunnan Condor Bioreserve, Ecuador What is the overall vision and scale of the project?

What biodiversity 1 are we trying to conserve or restore? What is the Core CAP Question? 1 The term “biodiversity” could be replaced with any number of different concepts, management objectives or outcomes. Currently, CAP examples using cultural resources, operating unit management, volunteer programs, etc. in place of “biodiversity” exist.

Northern hardwood forest ecological system Low gradient 3rd order riverine ecological system Emergent wetland community - Ecological Systems - Assemblages of communities which co-occur on the landscape; linked by environmental processes. - Communities - Vegetation associations or aquatic alliances - Species - Often species with special conservation or management needs - Imperiled, endangered, special concern - Assemblages with similar conservation requirements - Significant aggregations, wide- ranging, or keystone

Who are the key stakeholders with vested interest in the project, what factors are driving critical threats, and what opportunities exist?

LOCAL BENEFITS Strategic thinking and analysis process – aimed at selecting high impact conservation strategies Enables adaptive management at a local scale BENEFITS AT SCALE Facilitates cross-project coordination & learning Captures the essential ingredients common to successful conservation projects Enables the sharing of project-level work 2 Faces of CAP
