What would be useful processes and/or
products for “prioritizing strategies”?
•Prioritization of strategies (what to do where): restoration,
mitigation, protection, working landscapes, and “climate-smart”
strategies
• Synthesis of existing actions, efforts, strategies across the region?
• Mapping of where restoration v protection v climate smart
strategies are priorities?
• Developing “theories of change” or events chains?

Workshops Afield
• Informational: what we’re doing
• Feedback: what would help
• Input
Case Studies
• Why?
• Criteria:
•“sub-landscape” or whole area
•direct mgt application,
•multi-party interest,
•across ownership boundaries,
•ecosystem-based,
•regional issue ( for example, connectivity)
•Threat (sea level rise, development, etc)
•Conservation & human use

Deliverables:

A spatially explicit database that represents the condition of targets across the region.

An integrated condition index for our conservation targets.

An assessment of critical data gaps and data problems that limit the ability to assess condition.

An assessment of human well-being targets and work plan and proposal for a robust assessment.

A prioritization of data gaps and how to fund.

A synthesis of future climate threats for all conservation targets.

A synthesis of future non-climatic threats for all conservation targets.

A process to manage data and associated metadata.

Produce a spatial database of previously identified priority conservation areas.

Complete a spatial prioritization of core areas, along with methodology and metadata to inform alternative scenarios.

Create a web-based tool that identifies levels of threats to conservation priority areas, and work with stakeholder
through a series of meetings and workshops to achieve consensus on priority areas.

Face-to-face event
Learn about different ecoregional and larger conservation efforts
Identify overlapping, but complementary efforts
Starting point for Community of Practice across the NorthWest
Focus on landscape-scale conservation strategies
Outcomes:
 Develop a shared understanding of the different scales of
work happening and how that scaled work can be
leveraged
 Identify the existing strengths of landscape conservation
design as well as key gaps
 Identify who is doing what, sharing the stages of
development and key products – learning from others to
leverage interests and resources
 Move the conservation needle
 When? Late Fall of 2017/early Winter 2018
