Description

In November 2018 Living Lakes Canada, WWF-Canada, and The Gordon Foundation convened a national roundtable discussion aimed at identifying actional steps the federal government can take to show leadership and support in advancing community-based monitoring of freshwater ecosystems in Canada.

This compilation is the outcome of the roundtable. It includes a discussion paper, final recommendations, and case studies of diverse community-based monitoring programs across the country.

The insights and contributions of the roundtable participants and project advisory committee made this work possible.

This initiative was supported by Environment and Climate Change Canada and Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada.
