OUR PLACES

BLUE RANGE FEATURES A NETWORK OF OBSERVATORIES

Focused on allocation and adaptation in the context of global challenges spanning from food security and agricultural transitions to sustainable urbanization and biodiversity loss. Our observatories are built on relationships and the principle of reciprocity, where our research serves to build and benefit communities. These observatories are therefore long term in nature and we take a generational view on the research agenda and path to impact. Our longest standing partnerships are over a decade old, including the Colorado River Basin, the Columbia River Basin, the Deschutes, northern Mexico, and southeast Australia. More recently, we have established observatories and partnerships in East Africa and China are forging relationships in Tunisia, India, and Colombia. Most recently, we have begun looking closer to home, working in the Upper Grand River and the Headwaters Region of southern Ontario.
