Help guide the future of Kitchener’s nature education and stewardship programs
The City of Kitchener is looking to expand its Kitchener Natural Areas Program (KNAP), an environmental initiative that promotes community involvement in Kitchener’s natural spaces and urban forest. The program currently offers nature-based wellness experiences and learning opportunities within the community. The City is exploring how to expand KNAP’s volunteer and educational programs to give Kitchener residents more opportunities to learn about and engage in the protection and enhancement of Kitchener’s trees and natural areas.
We are seeking community feedback until March 15. Responses will be used to help shape new programs, including learning opportunities and hands-on volunteer experiences.
Follow the project’s progress and share your ideas at EngageWR.ca/KNAP and learn more about the KNAP program at Kitchener.ca/KNAP.
Land acknowledgement
The City of Kitchener is situated on the traditional territory of the Chonnonton, Anishinaabeg, and Haudenosaunee Peoples. We recognize our responsibility to act as stewards for the land and honour the original caretakers who came before us. Our community is enriched by the enduring knowledge and deep-rooted traditions of the diverse First Nations, Métis, and Inuit Peoples who live in Kitchener today.
