This course addresses the complex range of principles and practices

conservation charters, principles, standards, and guidelines are
discussed, along with legal, programmatic, and financial incentives
and constraints. Strengthen your capacity to:

    *   trace the evolution of preservation and conservation
        activity in Canada

    *   work within a principled and systematic framework for
        conservation decision-making

    *   identify programs, funding opportunities, and other networks
        that support conservation activity

    *   distinguish between preservation and conservation planning
        and describe methodologies for each type of planning

    *   respect and integrate the values and interests of
        communities

    *   recognize the range of options for intervention and use that
        can be considered in conservation planning

    *   anticipate the implications of building codes, by-laws,
        health and safety issues, accessibility requirements,
        integration of additions, environmental impacts, and other
        legal, jurisdictional and practical constraints and
        incentives
