Protected Areas Development and Environmental Stewardship, Eeyou Istchee (Crees of northern Quebec)
This project has been designed in partnership with the
Grand Council of the Crees
of Eeyou Istchee to generate a comprehensive “Cree Regional Conservation Strategy” to expand
and articulate a Cree vision for a network of terrestrial and marine protected areas throughout
their regional territory. This project also aims to identify priority research to support the
protection and rehabilitation of habitats important to Cree environments and land-based
livelihoods. In this endeavour, we also collaborate with the Waterfowl Habitat Taskforce,
a cooperative initiative of
Cree
coastal communities of Eeyou Istchee.
