Restoration Stories

Knowledge about restoration methods, motivations, and outcomes is dispersed and found in many different forms. Sometimes, decades of knowledge is stored with an individual as memories and experiences. Sometimes, restoration knowledge is stored in management documents, reports, or even news articles. Sometimes, it appears in the scientific literature.

Organizing and accessing each type of knowledge is an art, and can be both time consuming and difficult. We are striving to bring some of that knowledge together in an engaging way, and will slowly be adding what we call 'restoration stories' to this page. These will be creative, sometimes playful ways of synthesizing restoration types. Each story will always have some form of accessible, raw information behind it - be it compiled data from interviews, management documents that we will curate and store publicly, or spatial and monitoring data available through our lab database.

We work on the traditional territories of the lək̓ʷəŋən peoples. The Songhees and Xʷsepsəm/Esquimalt, as well as the W̱SÁNEĆ peoples have deep, historical relationships with the land that continue to this day. Most of our group are uninvited settlers here. We are committed to deepening our understanding of how we can assist in the movement of reconciliation, dismantling the systems that continue to cause harm, and honoring the traditional stewards that have shaped this land.
