Our Story
We believe a global model to sustain salmon can help sustain all species
The Skeena is one of North America’s last remaining intact watersheds,
where $100 billion in industrial projects are proposed
Sustainability and resilience requires imagination, compassion and long-term balance. Salmon are the backbone of the diverse cultures, economies and ecosystems in the Skeena region. Protecting salmon is fundamental to maintaining and building a healthy watershed and local communities.
To avoid the fate of other systems which have been dammed, polluted, overfished and paved over, we need comprehensive strategies to assess cumulative effects and encourage regional planning which protects our wild salmon ecosystems and the communities who depend on them.
Formed in 2007, SkeenaWild Conservation Trust is dedicated to making the Skeena River and nearby coastal communities a global model of sustainability where large human and salmon populations coexist.
We are working with governments, Indigenous Nations, communities and individuals to sustain the long-term health and resilience of the wild salmon ecosystems and local communities.
