Management Recommendations
Major findings and recommendations for resource managers that developed from this strategic and collaborative conservation planning process.
- Broadly and strategically communicate the utility of landscape-level conservation planning to the many stakeholders in the region.
- Select subgeographies from LCC-wide plan to focus conservation outreach and efforts, building a support base and better design elements for next iteration of the conservation plan.
- Articulate use-cases, success stories, and interpretive materials for organizations interested in using the conservation plan.
- Fund multi-scaled spatial analyses and data creation to fill data gaps and better represent the complexity across the geography.
- Align conservation plan with other ‘big thinkers’ such as NGOs and other LCCs to extend the utility of the conservation plan.
- Reiterate vision of conservation across the region. Local planning remains extremely important, but the LCC should provide utility beyond the local level and inform those efforts with a broader context where possible.
- Expand technical team expertise to include emerging science and data products.
