With COP16 happening right now in Colombia, it's a great time to draw attention to a new guidance report that's just been published by IUCN. The guidance was designed to ensure inland waters are part of the global conversation about conservation needs. Available from IUCN.

On this day, we pause to reflect on the painful history of residential schools, honour survivors and their families, and listen to their stories so we might better understand the inter-generational impacts that the residential school system has had on Indigenous Peoples.
