This grant opportunity from the Department of the Interior aims to support the Desert Landscape Conservation Cooperative in engaging tribes and planning for climate adaption. Landscape Conservation Cooperatives (LCCs) work collaboratively to ensure the sustainability of land, water, wildlife, and cultural resources in specific ecological boundaries across the United States, Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Pacific Islands. With a focus on science-based responses to climate change, this grant encourages partnerships between various stakeholders to inform conservation decisions and actions for the benefit of the environment and communities.

| Description: | By leveraging resources and strategically targeting science to inform conservation decisions and actions, Landscape Conservation Cooperatives (LCCs) create a network of partners working in unison to ensure the sustainability of America���s land, water, wildlife and cultural resources. Facilitated by the Department of the Interior (DOI) as part of its collaborative, science-based response to climate change, each of the 22 LCCs operates within a specific landscape, covering the entire United States. Defined based on ecological boundaries, the LCCs also include portions of Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean and Pacific Islands. Partners include federal, state, and local governments, tribes, universities, nongovernmental organizations, landowners, and other stakeholders. These landscape-scale, conservation science partnerships support and enhance on-the-ground conservation efforts by facilitating the production and dissemination of applied science products for resource management decisions. |
