Wetlands in Quebec: partnership for the development of restoration methods and governance structures

Project Description

Despite major advances in wetland restoration in recent years, Quebec is currently failing to effectively compensate for the loss of wetlands on its territory. Our team aims to inform restoration projects about governance and restoration methods that need to be employed to ensure success. More specifically, the objectives of our K2A group are to promote collaborative work in multidisciplinary teams composed of people from various sectors (universities, ministries, cities, NPOs) to catalyse action to restore wetlands; identify the brakes and levers on restoration projects; train HQP and graduate students; and create summaries and tools to inform and support restoration projects.
