Climate Change Adaptation and Resilience in the Nechako Watershed Workshop
Posted: Mar 28, 2026
The Nechako Watershed Roundtable invites you to participate in a Climate Change Adaptation and Resilience in the Nechako Watershed workshop, themed “From Streams to Strategy: Pathways to Collective Action”. The workshop will be held on April 28th at the House of Ancestors in Prince George, BC.
Because the adverse impacts of climate change are manifested largely at the local level, the NWR hosted a “Climate Change Adaptation and Resilience in the Nechako Watershed” workshop in November, 2024, to gather and engage local leaders at all levels of government, scientists and knowledge holders, and partners in dialogue.
Using lessons from First Nations plans guiding climate change response, disaster management, and Indigenous laws, participants of the 2024 workshop collectively identified priorities for action and opportunities to build local resilience in the watershed.
On April 28, we will collectively confirm and identify which of these top priorities to action for the greatest impact now while supporting communities to shift from crisis response to proactive resilience and adaptation.
The workshop will feature a keynote address from Dr. Shannon Waters, Deputy Health Officer for Planetary and Water Health. A tour and social event will follow at the Spruce City Wildlife Association.
We invite you to register for the event here. We’ve reserved a block of hotel rooms at the Ramada Plaza by Wyndham at a discounted rate – you can book here or use the code 042726NEC to book over the phone.
