Project Coordinator, Natalie Deseta will be presenting on the Nashwaak Watershed Association’s (NWAI) community-based approach to leave room for the river and restore and conserve native floodplain forested wetlands in Fredericton, New Brunswick. The Nashwaak Greenway Project aims to increase community resilience in a changing climate – by increasing landscape connectivity, mitigating local overland flooding, providing critical habitat for native aquatic and terrestrial species, and connecting people with nature through provision of recreational green space that they are helping to restore and steward.
