Monica Emelko, Scientific Director and Principal Director of the forWater Network is giving two talks in December 2021 focused on the opportunities to build climate resilient communities by integrating 'green' watershed nature-based solutions with 'grey' in-plant infrastructure for drinking water security. The first talk is being hosted by WESTalks which is a collaborative initiative by IC-IMPACTS and the University of British Columbia’s Future Waters group. Monica will also be presenting at the Institute of Water's Science Festival which is held in the United Kingdom.

  • Extreme events, such as wildfires, insect outbreaks, floods and hurricanes increasingly threaten the provision of forest watershed services in a changing climate.
  • A transdisciplinary network of Canadian researchers from multiple institutions aim to find innovative solutions to address climate change impacts on forested source water, the downstream effects, water treatability and resource economics.
  • The researchers are working with all communities, including those that are Indigenous, rural and remote, to ensure forest management and water supplies meet not only public health guidelines, but community expectations.
