How are you helping create a
conserver economy and a conserver society in Ontario?
|
Your programs and resources
are part of Ontario's conservation movement. Take a page to tell
us about your best campaigns, projects, services, or products. We
will compile these pages into a "We Conserve" workbook and provide you with an
analysis of how all these activities fit into our template for an
effective conservation: engage, advise, and support.
Submissions are still
being accepted up to Friday November 28.
Send files, preferably in MS Word format to
Chris
Winter, care of The Conservation Council of Ontario.
Who can submit
pages?
This offer is open to all attendees
of the Conservation Summit -- NGOs, community groups, cultural
organizations and agencies, first nations, faith groups, companies,
business associations, professional associations, institutions,
municipalities, and provincial and federal ministries and agencies.
If you are attending as an individual, you may wish to submit a page on
behalf of an organization you know.
Do I have to
attend the summit to submit a page?
Strongly recommended, but we will also include significant programs and
resources from groups that are unable to attend, if requested.
Can I submit
more than one page?
Yes. If you have good projects,
services, or products to share and you can't fit them onto one page,
please do so. Just try to conserve paper. You don't need to
include everything, but you do want to profile your best activities.

Can policy
groups submit pages?
Yes. Our focus is on creating positive change. Much of our
emphasis with "We Conserve" is on outreach and support programs, but we
recognize that any comprehensive conservation plan requires fiscal and
regulatory support as well as voluntary measures.
Disclaimer
The workbook is intended primarily as
a resource for the summit participants, and it will also be available as
a pdf file on this website. Inclusion in the workbook does not
constitute an endorsement from the Conservation Council of Ontario.
We also reserve the right to edit or reject any submissions.
