Abstract/Description or Keywords | From January 27th to 29th, 2014, nearly 200 delegates (plus an additional 75 virtual participants via online satellite events across the country) came together for the Watersheds 2014: Towards Watershed Governance in British Columbia and Beyond forum. The delegates came from a diversity of backgrounds—including watershed groups, researchers, professional resource managers, and decision-makers at all levels of government, including First Nations—to re-envision the way we use, share, and respect our freshwater and watershed resources. They gathered at the Quw’utsun’ Cultural and Conference Centre on Cowichan Tribes territory in Duncan, B.C. to engage with current challenges and emerging concepts in water and watershed governance, and to share ideas, research, practical governance tools, and stories and lessons learned from their personal experiences. |
