The goal of the Lake Superior Land Trust Partnership is to protect our shared resource, the Lake Superior Basin, by strengthening the capacity and coordination of the land conservation community to:

• Identify and actively protect important natural and scenic areas around the Basin;
  
  
• Leverage resources for increased land protection;
  
  
• Facilitate land protection information/data sharing among public and private organizations;
  
  
• Communicate the benefits of land conservation and foster awareness of conservation options;
  
  
• Create an informed and effective land trust partnership to share talents, tools and knowledge in ways that benefit all member organizations; and
  
  
• Undertake projects in areas not served by a land trust.

To date, approximately 20 land trusts or closely related organizations are participating in the Partnership.
