Recovery Strategies
A recovery strategy is a planning document that identifies what needs to be done to arrest or reverse the decline of a species. It sets goals and objectives and identifies the main areas of activities to be undertaken. Detailed planning is done at the subsequent action plan stage. In preparing a recovery strategy, the competent minister may adopt a multi-species or an ecosystems approach. More on recovery strategies>
Recovery planning also occurs outside the auspices of SARA (e.g., recovery strategies and action plans produced by individual jurisdictions, or national recovery plans that were published prior to SARA). Please visit Environment Canada's Species at Risk website for information about the national recovery program, RENEW.
Species marked with an asterisk (*) have at least one associated document.
