The Alberta Land Trust Alliance (ALTA) is a not-for-profit organization that strives to ensure Alberta's future landscapes are rich in biodiversity and have strong ecological integrity. We work with Alberta's land trusts and Alberta's land trust community.
Vision
Alberta's future landscapes are rich in biodiversity and have strong ecological integrity.
Mission
To represent the land trust community and build capacity in land trusts to conserve diverse and ecologically important landscapes in Alberta.
Land trusts are non-profit charitable organizations that have as one of their core objectives the acquisition of lands or interests in land (e.g., conservation easements) for the purpose of conservation. The ALTA strives to speak as a unified voice on behalf of Alberta's land trusts. Alberta has twelve (12) land trusts.
The land trust community includes private landowners, conservation professionals such as appraisers, lawyers and accountants, government representatives from municipal, provincial and federal departments and the public.
