Lessons from the Ecological Corridors Project in the A2A Region

How do we move from "mapping a line" to "nurturing a corridor"?

Join the Algonquin to Adirondacks (A2A) Collaborative, Frontenac Arch Biosphere Network, and Plenty Canada for a presentation on the culmination and core lessons of our recent Ecological Corridors project. Supported by Parks Canada, this initiative worked to identify and protect vital wildlife linkages within the Frontenac Arch—a critical bridge in the A2A landscape.

Throughout this project, we have been working to adopt an Ethical Space and Two-Eyed Seeing approach. Our goal was to move toward a model of land stewardship where Western science and Indigenous Knowledge work in tandem. We invite you to hear about our progress, our challenges, and our ongoing journey in this collaborative space.

What we will share:

• Refining the Maps: How we integrated local and Indigenous Knowledge to sharpen regional wildlife models.
• On-the-Ground Insights: Practical lessons from "ground-truthing" efforts in high-priority corridors.
• The Path of Collaboration: Honest reflections on the process of integrating Indigenous-led approaches into connectivity mapping.
