About This Cause
Nature Manitoba is people sharing a passion for nature. Our goal is to provide opportunities to connect with and protect nature, promote an appreciation and understanding of nature, and to enjoy Manitoba's natural spaces in a way that is ecologically sound. We deliver nature-based educational programs, facilitate projects which encourage citizen science and environmental action, and since 1920 we have been protecting some of Manitoba's most vulnerable ecosystems. Nature Manitoba is a not-for-profit organization that was founded in 1920 as the Natural History Society of Manitoba (later known as the Manitoba Naturalists Society), "for the popular and scientific study of nature". In 2009, we changed our name to Nature Manitoba. Our members share a passion for nature. Our goal is to promote an appreciation and understanding of nature, and to preserve and enjoy it. Nature Manitoba offers a wide variety of indoor and outdoor programs year-round, and advocates for the protection of our natural environment. We believe that the opportunity to experience the natural world in peace and tranquility is a joy and a privilege. We believe in the importance of sound stewardship of our parks, wilderness and other natural areas, and are proponents of self-propelled (non-motorized) recreation when enjoying these areas.
