About the A2A Collaborative

The A2A Collaborative is a federally incorporated nonprofit organization and a registered Canadian and U.S. charity. We connect lands and people across the Algonquin to Adirondacks region, to enhance a critical link for biodiversity and resilience in eastern North America.  We support our partners in many ways, including providing a solid evidence base to inform our partner organizations' conservation activities, communicating between partners and on their behalf, and leading regional projects that build capacity throughout our network.

Our Vision

We envision a resilient, ecologically-interconnected landscape that sustains a full range of native wildlife and enhances people's quality of life for generations to come. 

Through attainment of this vision:
We envision an A2A region in which people:
  • Fulfill their responsibilities to the earth 

  • Have a strong sense of “home place” 

  • Live in harmony with the rest of nature 

​
We envision an A2A landscape which:
  • Provides a critical corridor for wildlife movement in eastern North America 

  • Consists of a rich mosaic of wildlife habitats 

  • Exhibits ecological integrity 

  • Provides resilience to climate change and other human disturbances 

  • Supports vibrant, working landscapes and ecologically-sustainable human land uses within the limits of natural law 

  • Contributes to the physical, emotional, cultural, and spiritual well-being of human communities in the region
​

Our mission

Our mission is to connect  lands and people across the Algonquin to Adirondacks region to conserve and enhance a critical corridor for ecological integrity and resilience in eastern North America.
​

The A2A Collaborative achieves this mission by:
  • Collaborating at multi-national, national (the United States, Canada, and First Nations), regional, and local levels to develop strategic initiatives; 
  • Helping to establish and disseminate science-based and aboriginal traditional knowledge to guide planning and stewardship actions across the A2A region; 
  • Supporting grassroots and on-the-ground efforts that help us advance toward our Vision; 
  • Promoting ecologically-sustainable land uses; 
  • Engaging in public outreach and education; 
  • Fostering a sense of pride and home-place among the residents of the A2A region.
