The Wildlife Management Institute (WMI) and its partners have created a forum to create a refined set of Foundational Elements of Fish and Wildlife Conservation that is current and forward-looking. The questionnaire will provide insights from practitioners, policymakers, and academics about what policy items each person believes important to include in a future list of Foundational Elements. To date, we have received over 600 responses. Please consider adding your thoughts to this effort.

WMI is soliciting your insights into which statements should be brought forward for consideration to include in a curated contemporary list of Foundational Elements of Fish and Wildlife Conservation. The questionnaire also provides an opportunity for you to identify additional Foundational Elements that should be considered for inclusion based upon current or anticipated future challenges. Depending on your level of reflection and feedback, this questionnaire could take 30-45 minutes to complete. Your responses are anonymous, and your responses will never be associated with your name. Your responses will be combined with the responses of others and reported in aggregate only.

We seek to receive as many perspectives as possible. This is your opportunity to improve existing policies or innovate the statements that could inform current and future practitioners. We look forward to receiving your feedback as soon as possible, the questionnaire will be closing in late May.
