ECONOMIES & ECOSYSTEMS
CPAWS-Saskatchewan envisions a robust and diverse economy for the province, where conservation, wilderness and protected areas are an integral part of our wealth.
Conservation brings many economic benefits to communities and the province as a whole, and these benefits will increase in the future. Completion of a protected areas network will help build a sustainable economy less vulnerable to the boom and bust cycles of resource industries.
Other CPAWS chapters have completed research projects on conservation economics. See the CPAWS-Yukon summary report entitled Economic Benefits of Protected Areas (below).
More information on the economic impacts and benefits of protected areas can be found at:
