Towards a Blueprint for Watershed Governance in British Columbia: Synthesis Report

This synthesis report from the POLIS Water Sustainability Project summarizes key aspects of the discussions and themes explored at a two-day expert roundtable hosted by the WSP and the Water Policy and Governance Group in June 2012.

The roundtable focused on the potential for developing a watershed-based approach to water and resource governance in British Columbia. The synthesis report draws on presentations given during the two-day event and also captures key aspects of the dialogue, with a particular emphasis on identified leading practices used in other jurisdictions that can help inform principles for watershed governance in B.C.
