This USFWS grant is for supporting Landscape Conservation Cooperatives (LCCs), a network of 22 collaborative partnerships working to ensure the sustainability of land, water, wildlife, and cultural resources. The USFWS offers financial assistance for projects that provide science-based solutions to critical conservation challenges. Priority themes include advancing LCC network coordination, addressing identified needs in large-scale conservation efforts, developing performance measures, enhancing compatible landscape planning, and facilitating network-wide data integration. This funding aims to deliver vital science, information, and tools that benefit multiple LCCs, ultimately increasing the capacity of LCCs and partner organizations to conduct effective landscape conservation.

By leveraging resources and strategically targeting science to inform conservation decisions and actions, Landscape Conservation Cooperatives (LCC) have been established as a network of 22 collaborative conservation partnerships from federal agencies, states, non-government organizations, academic institutions and tribes to ensure the sustainability of land, water, wildlife and cultural resources. Financial assistance from the USFWS will be awarded for projects that address the following priority theme areas: Synthesis Products to Advance National LCC Network Coordination and Function; Addressing Existing Needs Identified by National or Large-scale Conservation Efforts; Development of Performance Measures for Landscape Conservation and the LCCs; Enhancing Landscape Planning and Ensuring Compatible Landscape Planning across the National LCC Network; and LCC Network-wide Data Integration and Dissemination. Projects that address these themes will provide critical science, information, or tools that have wide utility to multiple LCCs or the LCC Network and will increase the capacity of the LCCs and the associated partner organizations to conduct landscape conservation. |
