\nSecond Century Stewardship began in 2016 as a collaboration between\u00a0Schoodic Institute<\/a>, the U.S. National Park Service (NPS)<\/a>, and the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)<\/a> to advance science and inspire audiences of all ages by inviting visitors and others to view national parks through a \u201cscience lens\u201d while providing authentic learning experiences.<\/p>\n

On June 25, 2016, David Shaw, a trustee of the National Park Foundation<\/a>, announced a $1 million gift to set in motion a vision of the next century\u2019s legacy for America\u2019s national parks. Today, partners Schoodic Institute, the U.S. National Park Service, and the David E. Shaw Charitable Trust further the effort.<\/p>\n

Second Century Stewardship began at Acadia National Park and will grow to include national parks across the country, advancing science and engaging with audiences of all ages \u2013 not just those who visit national parks, but all people, each of whom has a share in protecting and preserving our nation\u2019s natural places and maintaining the vital health of our air, soil and water.<\/p>\n

Acadia National Park<\/a> currently serves as the project pilot park. It is one of the nation\u2019s most visited parks within the NPS. Acadia National Park leadership has a strong commitment to applying current research to its resource and visitor management decisions so as to protect those resources and assure the quality of visitor experiences and education.<\/p>\n

Schoodic Institute at Acadia National Park is a non-profit partner to the NPS and is dedicated to promoting scientific literacy and environmental stewardship through science research and learning for all ages. Located within Acadia National Park the Institute weaves education with research, supports priority science, provides professional learning opportunities, and builds understanding and appreciation for the natural world.<\/p>\n

This project was made possible in part by a grant from the National Park Foundation through the generous donation of David Shaw.
