AWA is committed to the protection of publicly owned wildlife, wild lands, and wild waters in Alberta.
We recognize the inherent value of nature and the myriad benefits humankind derives from it. AWA seeks secure interconnected habitats that are representative of Alberta’s natural landscapes and ecological processes, and that sustain the full complement of indigenous wildlife populations. AWA supports the conservation of wildlife populations in their natural environment and as a public resource.
