In 2013, the Partnership for Water Sustainability and Irrigation Industry Association (IIABC) decided to co-host a year-end workshop that would be both visionary and practical, with the objective of starting a conversation around a ‘bold idea’. This collaboration has morphed into an annual workshop series. The first three events were held in Metro Vancouver and on Vancouver Island. In 2016, the Partnership and IIABC have joined forces with the Okanagan Basin Water Board to hold the fourth in the series in Kelowna. The ‘bold idea’ that will be showcased on November 29th at the Flow and Grow Workshop is BLUE ECOLOGY, a concept pioneered by Michael Blackstock and supported by UNESCO.
