Thanks for that question.
This is a $15-million fund that was supported by the Province of B.C. and is being delivered in partnership with MakeWay Foundation. The way that the funding has been designed and delivered has been in collaboration with an indigenous advisers circle, which has played a critical part in allocating the funds to the 49 projects that we have funded through this work. It is being delivered over three years, so the way we have done the work and the flexibility we have incorporated into the design of the work have enabled communities to start work immediately and to focus on their priorities.
In particular, many regions in B.C. and first nations communities are in remote locations and are isolated, so it is difficult to access the territory to do the conservation work and to do the work on the landscape that needs to happen.
