Interested in gaining some insights and ideas on how to build climate resilience in Canadian fisheries?
In an upcoming webinar (May 5, 9-11am PDT), hosted by Jenn Burt from Nature United, participants will learn how U.S. collaborations are advancing the development of climate resilient fisheries, and how Canadian fishers/harvesters can repilcate these efforts.

The webinar will feature a suite of guests from the U.S. East and West Coasts, including Alaska, and there will be time at the end for open Q&A and discussion.
