Are you passionate about protecting the environment and eager to make a difference in your community? Do you want to take proactive steps to manage stormwater runoff, protect water quality, and adapt to the challenges of climate change? Then our upcoming workshop is for you!

Join East Coast Environmental Law staff lawyers Mike Kofahl and Tina Northrup, along with guest speaker Marg Milburn, for an engaging evening of presentations, conversations, and learning about global and local movements to win legal rights to a healthy environment!

Wu Conference Centre, Aitken Room (Room 217)

Admission is free, and all are welcome.

This public legal education session has been made possible by funding from the New Brunswick Law Foundation.

Come join the NBEN, Nature NB, Birds Canada, Healthy Coasts NB, REGEN Media, the Government of New Brunswick, The Bassin Versant de la Baie des Chaleurs, the Port of Belledune, the Canadian Wildlife Service, the City of Bathurst and restoration experts from Helping Nature Heal to learn about living shorelines and take part in a hands-on volunteer effort to restore the coast at Youghall Beach in Bathurst, New Brunswick. Help plant trees and shrubs and build other natural erosion protection measures that will work to restore the living shoreline. These measures not only provide protection against storm surges, flooding, and erosion, but also create an important habitat for the endangered Bank Swallow species. This living shoreline restoration is being completed before the Bank Swallows migrate back to New Brunswick for the spring season to support the health of their population.
