SUMMARY:Guided Bus Tour: Nature-Based Sites & Regenerative Hydrology Sites
DESCRIPTION:This guided bus tour of several Nature-based and Regenerative H
 ydroolgy sites in Edmundston is a collaboration between CCNB Innov\, the C
 ity of Edmundston\, and the New Brunswick Environmental Network.Non-profit
  environmental organizations (the Madawaska River Management Society (SARM
 ) and the Northwest Rural Planning Committee (NWRPC)\, research and knowle
 dge-transfer institutions (the Eastern Canada Soil and Water Conservation 
 Center\, the University of Moncton\, Edmundston Campus\, and CCNB INNOV)\,
  and the City of Edmundston have been engaged for nearly two decades in ef
 forts to acquire and transfer knowledge\, as well as in planning initiativ
 es to maintain drinking water quality in the region’s main designated wa
 tershed.
 More recently\, the issue of stormwater management and flood ri
 sk in the downstream areas of the watersheds has emerged as a priority. Si
 nce the mid-2010s\, various projects have been underway at the site\, neig
 hborhood\, and watershed levels. At the same time\, there is a growing awa
 reness of both past mistakes in urban planning and land use\, as well as t
 he need to explore alternative approaches and adopt complementary strategi
 es.
 As part of a tour of several sites\, accompanied by professionals fr
 om diverse backgrounds\, this event will:
 
 
 highlight the region’s
  key issues and challenges\;
 outline the initiative that has been launch
 ed\, as well as the development of regional scientific\, technical\, and o
 perational capacity\;
 provide an overview of the first developments and 
 ongoing projects.
 
 
 Long neglected in the face of challenges\, damag
 e\, and costs\, minds are now opening up to new perspectives and a shift i
 n practices that incorporate nature-based solutions and the paradigm of re
 generative hydrology.
 This free event has a limit of 25 participants: Fi
 rst come\, first served.Financial support for this event is provided by th
