Partners

Become a Partner

There are two ways to become partners. The Frontenac Arch Biosphere Reserve itself, which has created this site, is a network and partnership organization. It is inclusive of social, cultural, environmental and economic agencies and organizations, working collaboratively for sustainable community development.

The Biosphere Trails Council is a network of trails organizations of the region. There are currently nearly 30 such organizations â€“ and your organization may wish to network with this group.

To explore these potential partnerships further, contact us at info@fabr.ca.

Donations

Help support the Frontenac Arch Biosphere Network by making a donation. At present, FABN is currently seeking charitable status; therefore we can not issue a charitable receipt. We do appreciate your support.

It's hard to describe what we produce. Have a look at some of the examples of our ever expanding inventory.

Our Partners

The Frontenac Arch Biosphere Reserve operates as the Biosphere Networkâ€”an incorporated, not-for-profit non-government organization. While it has a governance mechanism of a 19 member Board of Directors and Executive Director, it is in practice a partnership network of some 80 other regional organizations, from cultural, environmental, community and economic groups, and many government agencies.

The Biosphere works to facilitate discussions between the many partner groups, and the community at large. The broad goal of all World Biosphere Reserves is to find ways to protect the globally significant natural and cultural heritage, through sustainable community development. Therefore, the Biosphere Reserveâ€™s Business Plan is a reflection of sustainable community development, and sustainability goals of its partners.

Partners of the Biosphere Network are not necessarily financial supporters; they may simply participate at various levels in projects and programmes. All partners are entirely autonomousâ€”their objectives and goals are in no way determined by the Biosphere.

There are several networks within the Biosphere Network. Some of these are Local Flavours, the Biosphere Trails Council, the Frontenac Arch Biosphere Reserve Environmental Educators Network, a conservation network, and a sustainable tourism network. All are interrelated, and fundamental to sustainable community development.
