7 Lakes Alliance
Conserving the lands and waters of the Belgrade Lakes Region for all.
Our challenge
Ours is both an immediate challenge to our watershed and a need to balance conservation, protection and the needs of all who live and work in the region.
To meet this challenge, in late December 2017, the Belgrade Regional Conservation Alliance and the Maine Lakes Resource Center combined forces to create 7 Lakes Alliance. Together with our scientific research partner Colby College, 7 Lakes Alliance is committed to a mission of conserving the lands and waters of the Belgrade Lakes Region for all.
Vision
7 Lakes Alliance will support land and water conservation in the Belgrade Lakes Region by engaging with the whole community to achieve clean water, well stewarded lands, and a vibrant economy. Our work will combine contemporary scientific knowledge, respect for the area’s natural heritage and local traditions, inclusive priority setting and collaborative problem solving, with ongoing dialogue and widespread resource sharing to create a culture of conservation that serves us all.
