Strategic Plans

Kawartha Conservation's 10-Year Climate Change Strategy (2025-2034) is a comprehensive plan that addresses the challenges of climate change in the region. It prioritizes activities such as data collection, information sharing, knowledge exchange, and support for climate mitigation and adaptation. The strategy aims to enhance regional resilience by fostering collaboration among member municipalities, including the City of Kawartha Lakes, the Municipality of Trent Lakes, the Township of Brock, Township of Scugog, the Municipality of Clarington, and the Township of Cavan-Monaghan. This forward-looking strategy envisions a sustainable future that leverages valuable data sources and municipal collaboration to protect natural heritage and promote resilient ecosystems.

The purpose of the Kawartha Conservation Stewardship Strategy is to foster a stewardship ethic where landowners, business owners, municipalities, and partners across the watershed are engaged and dedicated to having a positive impact on their own land. Positive impacts may include conserving healthy, resilient ecosystems; protecting water resources; and restoring natural features and function. This Strategy is designed to accommodate flexibility throughout its implementation, enabling our team to react to the individual needs of our community and emerging issues on the landscape while meeting the strategic targets identified.
