One of the main aims is to create a plan that protects Saulteau culture and land use in the Sukunka Watershed. We also want to provide a path toward diverse, ecologically sustainable economies. The planning approach brings together both Indigenous knowledge and western science. DSF’s approach is to create a network of ecological reserves and include areas for economic activities. The plan will also consider impacts from climate change and other ongoing threats to plants and animals in the watershed.
We hope to see you there!
