The Niagara Escarpment Foundation

Continued to educate the public by creating greater understanding and awareness about the natural and cultural history of the Niagara Escarpment for the benefit of the public and the importance of the UNESCO Biosphere and conduct research relating to the environment of the Niagara Escarpment and disseminate the results for the public benefit. Continue to support greater public awareness and understanding about Ontario's Greenbelt (the Escarpment Plan which is part of Ontario's Greenbelt is the only part internationally recognized as a World Biosphere) and give a grant to the Escarpment Corridor Alliance (Registered charity #76571 8309 RR0001) to research planning issues related to the Niagara Escarpment Act and Plan. This included creating a justification document for an amendment to the Recreation land designation in the Niagara Escarpment Plan which will allow the Escarpment Corridor Alliance to protect and preserve the future of the Niagara Escarpment across the South Georgian Bay region and beyond. The Board of Directors also donated their time and expertise to peer review a draft manuscript for book on the history of the Niagara Escarpment which is to be published in 2025.
