The Narwhal presents: Feeding the future

From dried up berry bushes to declining caribou, many local and ancestral foods are at risk due to climate change, biodiversity loss, industrialization and overharvesting. First Nations communities are working hard to build up gardens, hunting camps and food stores in people’s homes, while facing worsening wildfires, drought and floods. What does the future of food sovereignty look like in the face of climate change? B.C. reporter Kwetásel’wet (Stephanie Wood) talks to ​’Cúagilákv (Jess H̓áust̓i), lands-based educator and executive director of the Qqs Projects Society and Tyrone McNeil, Stó:lō Tribal Council president and Tribal Chief and chair of the Emergency Planning Secretariat, about bringing food sovereignty back to the table. Closed captioning will be available. This event is made possible with support from the Real Estate Foundation of BC.
