Students will learn from Wes Olson and Johane Janelle, who have over four decades of bison-related experience, along with other bison experts, and will embark on a transformative journey to learn about the ecological significance of bison.
The Resilience Institute was awarded Canada's Clean50 Project of the Year for our collaboration with the Piikani Lands Department on the Seeding our Future with Sweetgrass program.
Building on recent findings that confirm Sweetgrass is a natural climate change solution, this project engages Piikani youth in growing and monitoring this culturally significant plant in traditional Blackfoot ways. More to come on this exciting new initiative soon!

The Resilience Institute was born from the passion of a small group of interdisciplinary scientists who felt that there was a huge disconnect between climate science, communication, and action on climate change. That passion provided the impetus to create a national charity that today is focused on education and applied research that will advance resilience to the current and future consequences of climate change.

There is too much of a delay between planning and action to reduce vulnerabilities to climate impacts. Our Adaptation Action goals include a flexible pool of funds to enable the implementation of community-identified adaptation and disaster risk reduction strategies – without delay.
