The University of Windsor National Urban Park Hub's "Park Talks" Series

The University of Windsor National Urban Park Hub (UW-NUPH) is thrilled to announce the launch of our Park Talks series, an exciting and thought-provoking set of discussions exploring the future of Windsor's proposed National Urban Park. This series brings together leading voices in environmental conservation, Indigenous stewardship, and urban development, providing the community with an opportunity to engage in important conversations about the National Urban Park Program.

Led by UW-NUPH's Co-Principal Investigators, Dr. Catherine Febria (Healthy Headwaters Lab), Dr. Anneke Smit (Windsor Law Centre for Cities), and Professor Clint Jacobs (Indigenous Knowledge Table), along with other distinguished experts, the Park Talks series will explore key themes such as conserving nature, connecting people with nature, and advancing reconciliation with Indigenous peoples.

This is your chance to gain valuable insights into the development of the National Urban Park in Windsor and to participate in meaningful dialogue that will shape the future of our community. The series kicks off in November with three engaging sessions:

About the Park Talks Series

This series is designed to foster community engagement and promote discussions that align with the National Urban Park Program's core objectives. Each session will dive into the intersection of nature conservation, equitable access, and Indigenous-led stewardship, and how these principles inform the vision for Windsor's National Urban Park. It's an opportunity to deepen our collective understanding of the environmental, social, and cultural dimensions that are key to creating an inclusive and sustainable urban park for future generations.
