Building Conservation Partnerships

Our ParTnership Philosophy

Lasting Conservation Starts with People and Partnerships

The IWJV believes that lasting conservation in the West begins with people—those who steward working lands, from multi-generational land managers to first-time ranchers and conservation professionals. By integrating diverse knowledge and science-driven solutions, we create sustainable outcomes for both communities and habitats.

Our Relevancy to Partners

Our work is made possible through a strong and diverse network of people.

We support collaboration that balances diverse human interests, functional habitat, and the conservation and management of wildlife. We maintain relevancy by:

Creating collaboratives that connect diverse perspectives.

Investing in capacity building through partnerships.

Engaging agricultural producers in conservation efforts.

Focusing on solutions with multiple benefits.

Strengthening funding and administration of programs.

Ensuring federal funding reaches local communities.

Building partnerships with researchers and managers.

Expanding impact through science, funding, and outreach.
