Science and ethics of wolf conservation
Following our wildlife welfare ethic, 2023 will see us continuing our application and advancement of non-invasive approaches for monitoring wolves.
Research, policy, and governance for Fraser River salmon
Our work will inform ecosystem requirements for a sustainable, terminal salmon fishery that is Indigenous-led and ecosystem-based.
We are working towards ending commercial trophy hunting in the Southern Great Bear Rainforest tenure
We are raising funds to purchase one of our biggest tenures yet, the 18,239 km2 Southern Great Bear Rainforest tenure, and have until December 2023 to raise $1.92 million.
Protecting threatened forest ecosystems in BC
We are increasing our efforts to heal CDF forests through land-based restoration, community engagement, education, and research, all rooted in our commitment to safeguard forests for the future.
Working toward healthy waters for people, salmon, and whales
We will be applying our community-based water pollution monitoring plan to select watersheds across southern BC in 2023.
SV Achiever’s busiest year yet

Recovery efforts for endangered killer whales
Raincoast continues to work toward an ocean that provides healthy, abundant salmon and is quiet enough for hunting and feeding.
Whale conservation and recovery: our plans for 2023
Our research helps us better understand their susceptibility to anthropogenic threats and the impact of those threats, and develop practical and effective measures to reduce them.
The ocean we share
Our new Cetacean Conservation Research Program was launched at the beginning of 2022 and we couldn’t be more excited about it.
Measurable results
As someone who has pursued a life-long journey as an environmental scientist, I find myself wondering whether today’s ‘science to policy’ paradigm is sufficient to safeguard British Columbia from the ravages of climate change and the loss of biodiversity.
Why 2020 was not all bad…
Before 2020 closes, please accept my sincere thanks and gratitude for your support that has enabled our success.
Tracking Raincoast’s impact through 2020
