Join the YCS Board
Our mission is to strengthen the Yukon’s resilience, resistance and response to the twin climate and biodiversity crisis through meaningful partnerships - recognizing that all life is dependent upon healthy ecosystems.
Thank you for your interest in joining the Yukon Conservation Society Board of Directors!
YCS has a governance style board, which plays a key role in the success of its work.
If you have a passion for conservation and have time to put it into action, please consider joining the YCS Board.
To self-nominate (because you’re great) or nominate a friend, please fill out the online nomination form or the printable version below and submit via email to board@yukonconservation.ca or drop/mail a copy to us at 302 Hawkins St.
New board members will be elected at the YCS’ 2025 Annual General Meeting on Thursday, August 28!
Candidates may continue to be nominated until the start of the AGM, and may also nominate themselves on the floor of the meeting. To join us for the AGM online, RSVP via Zoom. To attend in-person at YCS HQ, RSVP via Eventbrite.
Please Note: Board members must be an active YCS member. Please activate your membership before or at the AGM. If you’re unsure of your membership status, please email outreach@yukonconservation.ca to inquire. Have questions, concerns or wish to chat about the opportunity? Contact board@yukonconservation.ca.
We welcome diversity and seek to have our board be representative of YCS membership and communities throughout the Yukon. We look forward to working together! Here are the YCS Board Candidate Bios so far for 2025-26.
