By that, we mean reconnect people, land, water and fish in altered landscapes! Bringing this vision to fruition requires an inter-generational commitment.

The role of elders is therefore a lynch-pin for inter-generational collaboration,” stated Derek Richmond.

This means that the work of The Partnership must be aligned with and support their organizational objectives,” stated Mike Tanner.
