It’s been a decade!

It started as a group of concerned citizens, First Nations, governments, researchers and stewardship organizations and it has today matured into a trusted, multi-sector interest- and partner-led body deeply committed to the health of the Nechako river and all 42,000 km2 of its vast watershed area.

Our staff reflect on the past 10 years of collaboration on the NWR and identify critical themes for the continuation of this important works.
