Indigenous Peoples are key partners as we work toward halting and reversing biodiversity loss in Canada. Indigenous Peoples have a deep knowledge and understanding of land management and we are working together to protect more nature, conserve biodiversity, and combat the effects of climate change. This program acknowledges the importance of culture, language, socio-economic factors, and traditional land use as part of conservation efforts. Indigenous-Led Area-Based Conservation (ILABC) provides funding to Indigenous Peoples to lead or co-lead the establishment and recognition of protected areas or other effective area-based conservation mechanisms (OECMs) across Canada. In this way, ILABC will contribute to Canada’s goal of conserving 25% of land and inland waters by 2025, and 30% of each by 2030.
