Be A Good Steward

What is stewardship? 

Stewardship can be defined as managing, supervising, or taking care of our resources. As a value, it embodies responsible planning and management.

How can I engage in stewardship?

• Consider reaching out to, or creating a local stewardship group. There are over 140 stewardship groups across the province. The Athabasca watershed has a number of active stewardship groups including:
  • BAILS
  • LEPA
  • Healthy Waters LLB
  • Friends of Jasper National Park
  • Airsheds (WCAS, WBEA)
• If you’re a landowner, employ best management practices! Keep up to date on local regulations and guidelines for land and water management.
