Convening for Action in BC

Kim Stephens_2011_MED Seminar_120p“Since 2003, the Real Estate Foundation and the Province of British Columbia have jointly funded development and implementation of the Water Sustainability Action Plan for British Columbia. Under this umbrella, a partnership network has been successfully ‘convening for action’ to help implement Living Water Smart, BC’s Water Plan and the Green Communities Initiative on the ground,” stated Kim Stephens. He is responsible for delivering Action Plan program elements.

“Now, the Partnership for Water Sustainability in British Columbia provides a legal entity for building on the existing Action Plan foundation and creating a lasting legacy through these Action Plan elements:

  • Water Balance Model and Water Bucket Website, the ‘twin engines’ of the Action Plan outreach and education program; and
  • the Convening for Action in British Columbia initiative.

The Partnership vision is that water sustainability will be achieved through implementation of green infrastructure policies and practices. How communities in BC get there relies on a change in mind-set. The Partnership mission is to facilitate that change.”
