HeronBridge is a small consulting firm based in unceded Kwakwaka'wakw territories on the coast of British Columbia. For 20 years we have worked at the leading edge of climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction in B.C., specializing in participatory and collaborative processes for building community resilience and becoming adaptive. Our work focuses on awareness and capacity-building, bringing innovative engagement approaches to trainings, experiential workshops, collaborative planning processes and risk assessments. We work with clients and partners in Indigenous governments and organizations; local, regional, provincial and federal governments; multi-sector and regional collaboratives; non-profits and community organizations.
Featured Project: K'ómoks Estuary Flood Resilience Strategy
The project partners and participants featured in this short video really do tell the story of what makes this work different and why we do what we do.
