NatureServe exists for collaboration. We're eager to learn more about your work and how we can help.

For 50 years, leading conservationists and decision-makers have turned to the NatureServe Network as the most reliable source for biodiversity data and expertise.

Each year NatureServe recognizes significant achievements in biodiversity conservation. We currently present three awards: the Robert E. Jenkins Lifetime Achievements Award, in honor of the architect of the NatureServe Network, the NatureServe Conservation Award, which honors one individual, and the Network Awards, which celebrates the accomplishments of the independent organizations that comprise the NatureServe Network.

Our mission is to be the authoritative source for accessible, current, and reliable data, expertise, products and services on the distribution and abundance of Canada’s biological diversity. NatureServe Canada and our member Conservation Data Centres manage and share datasets and value added products that integrate over 10 million observation data points and 230,000 element occurrences for more than 60,000 plants, animals, and ecosystems that occur in Canada.

NatureServe Canada’s data, information and expertise regarding Canada’s species and ecosystems guide effective conservation action and natural resource management.
