The Clayoquot Biosphere Trust (CBT) is a registered non-profit organization uniquely positioned as both a community foundation and a UNESCO biosphere reserve. Dedicated to fostering collaborative relationships between people and their environment, CBT frequently collaborates with the Tla-o-qui-aht First Nations' Tribal Park Allies program to support community-led conservation and cultural initiatives.

Unlike traditional business allies who contribute a percentage of their revenue, CBT leverages its role as a non-profit to facilitate partnerships and provide resources that advance the goals of the Tribal Park Allies. This collaboration supports a shared commitment to preserving the ecological integrity and cultural heritage of the region, promoting a conservation-led economy that enrichens the lives of those who live and travel here.

The Clayoquot Biosphere Trust exemplifies how non-profit organizations can play a pivotal role in supporting Indigenous-led conservation efforts. By partnering with the Tribal Park Allies and investing in sustainable infrastructure like their exciting new project, the Biosphere Centre, CBT contributes to a resilient and inclusive future for the Clayoquot Sound region.
