CIRES is embarking on an initiative that will marshal broad support from communities in the Kootenay Columbia region to create a funnel of climate resilience projects. By calling for proposals for climate resilient projects our extended team of Advisors will screen projects for viability and impact, bringing the best of these into a ‘project maturation funnel’ with the intent to matching each to the resources and funding needed to progress concepts rapidly towards implementation and potential replication and integration.

Please check back in with us as this process unfolds. We welcome your ideas and we welcome your support. Through our collective endeavour we must ensure that we respond to the increasing climate disruption in ways that go beyond simply coping - we must help people thrive through these now inevitable changes.
