A Canadian-U.S. collaborative of conservation organizations, researchers, foundations and conservation-minded individuals. Our international community is focused on the protection, conservation and restoration of forests and natural heritage from New York to Nova Scotia, across the Northern Appalachian-Acadian ecoregion.

Our Vision:

2C1Forest will work for the transformation of parks, refuges and forests across the Northern Appalachian-Acadian ecoregion into a living, breathing ecosystem for species, plant and animal, large and small.

We will realize this vision by:
  • Working and thinking at an ecoregional level, and within ecological borders versus political boundaries;
  • Defining a clear framework of understanding and developing a network that facilitates and supports a cross-border sharing of vital information; and
  • Using the basic principles of science-based, landscape-level conservation.
To that end, 2C1Forest is focused on three active roles and immediate priorities:
  • Serving as a forum to enhance collaboration among conservation organizations and scientists, at the ecoregional level;
  • Harnessing cutting-edge science for conservation planning, at the ecoregional level; and
  • Promoting science-based, ecoregional conservation and restoration.
Our priorities:
  • Science & policy studies on ecological trends in the ecoregion;
  • An initiative to map and save the key habitats and corridors that connect and sustain this ecoregional landscape; and
  • A broad-based communication strategy to educate people in the ecoregion on its vast ecological wealth and conservation potential.

Wildlands Network Design by the Wildlands Network.
A proposed wildlands network design for the Greater Northern Appalachian region of the northeastern United States and southeastern Canada. This region spans 388,541 km2 (96,010,538 acres) and encompasses two ecoregions, the Northern Appalachian/Acadian and St. Lawrence/Champlain, and all or part of ten states and provinces. A network design is a...
