The Habitat Restoration Working Group (HRWG) of the NBCKC

The HRWG met quarterly to share information, build relationships and advance group projects. Their work focused on:

• Building a community of practice through knowledge sharing: Sharing updates on the ongoing habitat restoration projects underway across Canada, as well as detailed updates on specific habitat restoration projects undertaken by HRWG members, including sharing project challenges, successes and lessons learned.
• Facilitating relationship building: Connecting and supporting group members working towards caribou habitat restoration and better understanding ecological responses to restoration actions.
• Collaboration: Working together to develop knowledge mobilization products to support caribou habitat restoration planning, implementation, and monitoring across Canada.

Tools developed by the Habitat Restoration Working Group:

• The Boreal Caribou Ecological Model
  • Infographic
  • Technical Report
  • Boreal Caribou Habitat Restoration Practices: Application and Outcomes
