The Canadian Conservation Photography Collective (CCPC) was formed in 2021 with the objective of promoting conservation and science education through the production of strong, thought-provoking visual content.

 

The collective is composed of photographers from across the country and from a wide variety of backgrounds, including biology, education, journalism, social work, and business. Networking as a team dramatically improves our ability to shed light on conservation issues. Together, we can reach, inform, and engage a much wider audience. 

 

In addition to regularly publishing content, the CCPC plans to expand its outreach activities to include conferences, presentations, and in-house print publications. We also plan to offer workshops, mentorship sessions, and guided expeditions aimed at a variety of skill levels. 

 

To effectively document complex conservation issues throughout the entirety of the country, we work with other collectives, NGOs, non-profits, research organizations, governments, and communities.

 

The CCPC believes in photography as a tool to educate, inspire, and engage. Our goal is to produce content that will open dialogues, stimulate conversations, and ultimately bring about change.
