The Salish Sea Science Roundtable online speaker series continues on Tuesday, December 2 from 12:30 – 1:30 pm.
Signed in 2021, the Burrard Inlet Environmental Science and Stewardship Agreement (BIESSA) is a Nation-to-Nation Reconciliation agreement between Canada and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh Nation; TWN) aiming to strengthen coordination and collaboration of science and stewardship activities in Burrard Inlet, Vancouver. Biologists Steve Healy and Ann-Marie Norris (Fisheries and Oceans Canada; DFO) as well Lead Natural Resource Technician Haley Crozier (TWN) will share some background on Tsleil-Waututh stewardship in the region, and highlight several ongoing collaborative projects between DFO and TWN, including: salmon stewardship in the Indian River Watershed, clam beach research, and a Dungeness crab telemetry pilot project.
Roundtables occur virtually on the first Tuesday of each month as a way to share emerging science that is shaping Salish Sea ecosystem recovery.
This event is free, but registration is required.
