Map

This map features a growing number of watershed initiatives across BC. These initiatives have been categorized into four groups — Indigenous-led, local government-led, co-led (Indigenous and provincial or local governments), and collaborative partnerships and roundtables — to help illustrate the different types of approaches being taken in different watersheds. These categories are, of course, not universal. Some initiatives and organizations span multiple categories, and there are many potential ways to describe the variety of watershed approaches being implemented across the province.

Please contact us if you have questions or suggestions to improve or add to this growing map.
