This week The Canadian Mountain Network launches their landmark report, the Canadian Mountain Assessment. The report addresses the fundamental questions: What do we know, not know, & need to know about Canada’s diverse & rapidly changing mountain systems? canadianmountainnetwork.ca/strategic-init…

During the Firelight Regulatory retreat, team members were able to share some positive takeaways about future goals for the team and foster a strengthened connection between each other. Here are some of Alexa Mantifel’s takeaways from the experience.

Special thanks to Google Earth, Google Earth Outreach and the 500+ participants at Google's 2023 Geo for Good event. Firelight is honoured to have received a Geo for Good Impact Award for the work we do with Indigenous Nations using Google Earth Engine. medium.com/google-earth/a…

Firelight also worked with Google Canada to have First Nations and Indigenous place names included on Google’s base maps. We are honoured to receive a Geo For Good Impact Award for this work.

This work documented Indigenous knowledge of land use that informs Indigenous Protected and Conservation Area (IPCA) plans and community climate adaptation plans through Direct-to-Digital mapping.

Firelighters Steve DeRoy and Kennedy Tuccaro are attending Google's Geo for Good Event this week along with our friend and Indigenous Mapping Workshop trainer, Nikki Tulley from NASA!
