Our purpose

With nature, we build a thriving world.

The interconnection of people and nature is the Nature Conservancy of Canada’s (NCC’s) foundation; the idea that we are all one with nature. Together, through purposeful actions, we have the opportunity to build toward a greater good — a thriving world. Because when nature thrives, people thrive.
