Deadline: August 21, 2023
The Invasive Species Council of British Columbia (ISCBC) has opened proposals for the completion of a research project identifying the impacts invasive species have on Indigenous values and culturally important species. With a focus on British Columbia, Canada, the research will serve to improve existing knowledge to determine how and to what extent various invasive species presently impact or could potentially impact species on the lands and in the waters that have cultural significance to Indigenous communities throughout the province. It will ultimately help address priority threats and lead to increasing local stewardship planning and activities. Please see the attached PDF for more details on the opportunity. For any questions regarding the RFP please contact Nick Wong at nwong@bcinvasives.ca.
