Description
The Canyonlands Research Center (CRC) is a consortium of conservation organizations, academic institutions, land managers, and state and federal research agencies working together to bring the best available science and different knowledge systems to land management decisions.
Founded in 2010, the CRC’s mission is to promote a sustainable future on the Colorado Plateau for people and nature through research, inspiration and demonstration of evidence-based solutions to solve some of our most pressing ecological, social and economic issues.
The CRC was built through collaboration and strategic partnerships, and its success depends on active involvement from The Nature Conservancy, the U.S. Geological Survey, Utah State University, the Bureau of Land Management, Canyonlands National Park and the USDA Forest Service.
