Today's Young Professionals. Tomorrow's Leaders.​

The transdisciplinary makeup of forWater's Network creates unprecedented opportunities for training. This uniquely positions  forWater to develop specialized expertise in integrated water and land management in Canada.
​​​"The interdisciplinary interactions between [the young professionals] really stands out to me. It's good to see robust conversations about forest management, source water quality assessment, and water treatment. It's also great to connect and build relationships with fellow young professionals.”​
​
- Rebecca Baldock, University of Alberta (Montane Cordillera)
