Indigenous Peoples in British Columbia have long stewarded our forests with a deep connection to the land, imparting their valuable cultural knowledge. Since its establishment in 2016, the Forest Enhancement Society of BC (FESBC) has been honoured to work alongside Indigenous partners and communities by investing in projects that are making a transformational difference in our forests. We are honoured to continue funding projects led by Indigenous proponents that reflect their vision for forest management, create opportunities for Indigenous People, and make their communities safer. Today…we released our Spring 2025 Accomplishments Update, showcasing newly funded projects – many of which are led by First Nations and rooted in local values, innovation, and sustainability. A more comprehensive report will be coming out this Fall… these initiatives are helping shape a more inclusive forest economy in B.C., one in which First Nations have an even greater leadership role to the benefit of all British Columbians.
