Compiling & Sharing Resources
The Alberta Center for Sustainable Rural Communities (University of Alberta) and Sustainability Resources Ltd. have developed a base inventory of initiatives and literature for water and watershed management in rural Albertan Communities. This website & resource directory is complemented by content-rich workshops that focus on knowledge and resource sharing.
We would like your participation in helping us create a robust resource center for water and watershed management. Visit our online Water Resources HERE!

Community-Based Seminars
One of the key priorities of this initiative is the communication of available resources to Alberta water managers and decision makers. These 1/2 day seminars and their content have developed to address critical knowledge and capacity gaps requested by water leaders and rural community decision makers across Alberta.
Seminars are coordinated by Sustainability Resources Ltd. in partnership with other agencies, communities, and industry partners and delivered by Resource Associates with guest speakers from Industry, Municipalities, and Watershed Councils.
