Brightwater’s Ecology programming strives to enhance student awareness, appreciation and understanding of, and their connectedness to, the natural and cultural history of “Native Prairie” from Western Science and Indigenous Knowledge perspectives. Programming focuses on Ecological Knowledge of the biodiversity, interactions and interconnectedness of prairie aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems as a whole, includes humans as an interacting species within the natural environment, and honours traditional knowledge of the land of the First Nations and Métis of Saskatchewan.
