Joint Venture Programs
What are Joint Ventures?
Joint ventures are regional-scale partnerships involving federal, state,
and local government agencies, corporations, private landowners, individuals,
and a wide range of non-governmental organizations. Joint ventures deliver
science-based, on-the-ground conservation in support of national and
international bird conservation plans, primarily the North American Waterfowl
Management Plan . Directed by a management board consisting of representatives
from numerous agencies, organizations, and other interests vested in
the conservation of fish and wildlife habitat, joint ventures use a collaborative
approach to prepare conservation plans and facilitate cooperation among
partners to fund and implement those plans.
