Alberta Land Trust Grant Program

September 15, 2023

Value

Varies.

Description

In Alberta, the conservation of private land supports natural landscapes that sustain healthy fish and wildlife populations, protects ecological services that benefit the economy and human health, and enhances recreational opportunities for Albertans.

Alberta Land Trust Grant Program helps establish and administer new conservation easements on private land and/or administer new conservation projects on existing land trusts. Any registered Alberta land trust organization with the stated mission of land conservation can apply for funding from the program.

Eligible Applicants

A land trust is a not-for-profit, non-government organization established to promote the conservation of biodiversity on private land. Any land trust currently registered in Alberta is eligible to apply but must provide other funding and demonstrate that their project aligns with the government’s overall conservation objectives.

Eligible Expenses

Funding can be used for:

  • securement of a conservation easement that is registered on the land title for perpetuity
  • land assessment and planning involved with a new conservation easement or donated title (for example, undertaking a baseline survey)
  • administrative costs involved in obtaining or maintaining the conservation easement or donated title.
    • costs must be directly related to the project
    • examples include legal fees, accounting and book keeping
  • staffing costs directly related to the project
  • extension directly related to the project (for example, educational signage)
    • grant funding cannot be used to raise funds or increase membership
  • Stewardship Endowment to ensure the continued protection and maintenance of the property
  • when funded, the development of new projects

Deadline Date

Program applications are currently closed for 2023-24. Check back for updates in late 2024.
