C-CIARN Prairies--network closed 30 June 2007

FRANÇAIS

C-CIARN Prairies was hosted by PARC (the Prairie Adaptation Research Collaborative) at the University of Regina. PARC continues to exist. The PARC website (www.parc.ca) details current activities and hosts completed and ongoing research projects.

C-CIARN Prairies’ mandate was to link researchers, stakeholders and decision makers in the field of climate change impacts and adaptation. We supported workshops, conferences, publications and media events to aid researchers and stakeholders in generating, understanding and disseminating options to deal with current and projected climate change. We also seeked to identify the key research and adaptation challenges for the Prairie Provinces. PARC continues this work.

C-CIARN successfully met the mandate that it was given when it was created in 2001, and on June 30, 2007, the network closed. The many products of C-CIARN, such as workshop and conference reports, posters and other communication products, remain accessible to the public through the C-CIARN Archives website (www.c-ciarn.ca) as well as through the websites of organizations such as PARC, which hosted a C-CIARN office, and which continues to carry out impacts and adaptation work.
