About Prince Albert Model Forest Association Inc. (PAMF)

The Prince Albert Model Forest (PAMF) is a non-profit partnership of forest users committed to the sustainability of Saskatchewan’s forests through research, education and the equitable sharing of forest resources. While the PAMF operates independently, we are a member of the former Canadian Model Forest Network and belong to the International Model Forest Network. Since it began in 1992, the PAMF has gained credibility as a leader in integrated resource management, and has developed strong partnerships linking industry, governments, aboriginal groups, communities, and researchers. We are recognized internationally and nationally for our strength in Indigenous partnerships. As a conduit between partners, our goal is to facilitate the connections required between organizations or individuals who can assist each other in achieving the goals and objectives that further community sustainability. The principles of inclusiveness, transparency, accountability, integrity, fairness and effective governance form the basis for all of our work. We provide a forum of neutral ground, mutual respect for discussion and sharing of ideas, problems, concerns and solutions. Decisions are made that favour multiple partners rather than just one, create models for long-term sustainability that can be applied to multiple communities, and remove barriers to multi-sector approaches. We gather and share ideas and knowledge in the interest of improving and strengthening working relationships among the partnership. The goals of the PAMF are to work with forest communities to develop governance models for creating new resource-based opportunities, to build capacity among local people including Indigenous communities, to manage those resources and new opportunities, to provide the tools and the forum that brings diverse groups together to integrate land management, develop ideas and find solutions that lead to community sustainability.
