Founded in 1990, Raincoast is a non-profit research and public education organization. We work in partnership with scientists, First Nations, local communities, government and non-governmental organizations to build support for decisions that protect marine and rainforest species and habitat on British Columbia’s central and north coast.
Raincoast accomplishes its goals by:
• Producing public educational materials including books, film documentaries, scientific reports, and other literature.
• Conducting scientific field research on coastal wolves, grizzly bears, and wild salmon to develop science-based conservation plans for BC’s coast.
• On-the-ground monitoring, photography, and videography of threatened valleys.
• Mobilizing public support throughout North America and Europe using lectures, slide shows, films, photography, print, radio, and television media.
• Land acquisition projects that protect key wilderness and culturally significant areas.
