Report– Mar 29, 2009
The objective of this project is to more carefully examine the opportunities for Environment Canada (EC) to collaborate with Community Based Monitoring (CBM), particularly in regard to facilitating networking among CBM-ICD (Informing Community Decisions) initiatives. EC support of CBM-ICD will be considered in the context of improving the delivery of EC’s current goals and priorities. To this end CBM-ICD in Canada is reviewed in the following contexts:
- success of CBM-ICD initiatives in Canada;
- needs identified by CBM practitioners;
- solutions provided by networking among CBM-ICD initiatives; and
- Environment Canada’s (EC) role as a leader in environmental monitoring.
