Finding a Balance

Caring For Ourselves

Now we can support informed decisions at the municipal level achieving a balance between progress and conservation, today and for future generations.

Working Watersheds - (Wiidookdadewin m: Caring For Ourselves)- is a suite of tools for municipal leaders, community groups and landowners to support sustainable development and healthy communities for the future.

Tools include:

a) functional mapping of the living landscape; including wetlands and hydrographs and watershed monitoring programs and data

b) curriculums for counsellors and the public to understand governing legislations, essential aspects of watershed management, and Indigenous knowledge.

c) case studies of balanced and natured based climate solutions that work! Here at home and around the world.

d) Access to decision trees and a panel of experts
