This webinar details LCCs Conservation Framework objectives. These include: 1. Agreement on goals and need for a regional framework to achieve resource conservation incorporating ecological and human needs; 2. An understanding of how completed, ongoing and proposed RCN/LCC projects fit into a common framework; 3. An understanding of how the elements in this framework will inform decision-making by the conservation community; and 4. An understanding on how the remainder of the workshop fits into the framework.
