#ICYMI: Watch our video to learn how we’re engaging communities, sharing knowledge, and mobilizing action. Together, we can create a wildfire-resilient Canada.

#WildfireResilience
The #WRCC is a national, virtual organization mobilizing wildfire research across all of Canada—connecting communities, practitioners, researchers & Indigenous knowledge. Together, we’re engaging, connecting, and accelerating wildland fire management using a whole-of-society approach.
Canada's wildfire challenges = diverse as our landscapes 🍃
WRCC's 6 ecozone networks tailor solutions: Cordillera ≠ Boreal Shield ≠ Prairie ≠ Atlantic Maritime.
Regional expertise + national coordination = effective resilience.
