First Nations Integrated Watershed Planning Guidebooks (2011)
CIER, with our First Nation Partners, created a tool that provides guidance for First Nations who want to take action on watershed planning.
These guidebooks proposal a model of watershed planning that is led by First Nations and creates an opportunity to address unique First Nation needs, relationships and rights. These guidebooks aim to support increased First Nations' involvement in regional watershed planning processes.
CIER offers training workshop on First Nation Integrated Watershed Planning using CIER's guidebooks.
Contact us for a copy of the guidebooks, or for hard-copies, please visit Lulu to order.
